ActionCache.AzureCosmos

The Azure Cosmos DB backend for ActionCache — namespaced response caching for ASP.NET Core.

dotnet add package ActionCache.AzureCosmos

This package references ActionCache, so installing it is enough — you do not need the core package as well.

Registration

using ActionCache.Common.Extensions;

builder.Services.AddActionCache(options =>
{
    options.UseAzureCosmosCache(cosmos =>
    {
        cosmos.DatabaseId = "MyDatabase";
        cosmos.ConnectionString = configuration.GetValue<string>("CosmosDb:ConnectionString");
    });
});

Both DatabaseId and ConnectionString are required.

Provisioning

The only thing to create in Azure is the Cosmos DB account. The database and container are created on first use if they do not already exist, so there is no setup script to run.

Initialization is lazy — it happens on the first cache operation rather than at startup, so an application does not fail to start because Cosmos is unreachable.

Each entry is a document holding the key, the namespace, the serialized value, and its expiration as both an absolute timestamp and a Cosmos ttl. Expiry is enforced by the container's TTL rather than by a background sweep.

Distributed single-flight

Cosmos supplies no distributed lock, so it cannot back options.UseDistributedSingleFlight(). Register ActionCache.Redis or ActionCache.SqlServer alongside it if you want distributed stampede protection; otherwise the in-process default applies.
