The problem occurs in multi-node environments where cache invalidation fails to propagate to all instances. What you'll learn: - Why HybridCache doesn't work properly in distributed systems - How cache invalidation only affects the current node and level 2 cache (Redis) - Step-by-step implementation of a Redis Pub/Sub solution to synchronize cache invalidation - Creating a background service to listen for cache invalidation events - Alternative solutions if you prefer not to implement this yourself I demonstrate the issue using a clear diagram showing how when one server invalidates a cache entry, the other servers' level 1 caches still contain stale data. The solution leverages Redis' publish/subscribe mechanism to broadcast invalidation messages to all application nodes. If you don't want to implement this yourself, you can either: 1. Set a very short local cache expiration time in HybridCache configuration 2. Use FusionCache as an alternative with its built-in Redis backplane support Complete with code samples and a demonstration using multiple application instances with .NET Aspire.
