Greetings,<br><br>I'd like to take the community's temperature on developing a global object caching strategy for drupal core 7.0. In effect, this would mean pulling the functionality of advcache module into core, though the code would doubtless be a bit different.<br>
<br>This has been previously discussed by Robert Douglass and Steve Rude, and I think both the short-term and strategic value here is clear. As memcached permeates the collective consciousness of the web-development community, and as "cloud" computing becomes more and more prevalent, best practices in architecture increasingly point towards caching full objects whenever possible.<br>
<br>This also fits well with Drupal's existing architecture. There are great functional points (e.g. node_load()) to mount this functionality.<br><br>I'm certain I'm not the only one thinking along these lines. Anyone want to throw out their ideas?<br>
<br>cheers<br>-josh<br><br>
