Hi,

I was wondering what happens when you upload a workspace into FME Server, is the caching disabled automatically? or is it being cached on the FME Server machine?

Thanks,

Itay

Caching is disabled automatically. It is only enabled while running in workbench with the toolbar button for caching "on". The caching is more of a workbench thing than a runtime thing. You can use caching in say the FeatureReader, where that is a runtime setting for the FeatureReader itself, but that is the only place currently.

Excellent! thanks for the verification/clarification @daleatsafe

How about using this, or something similar for caching in FME Server ?

We had a discussion about using FME Server for doing a mashup of different data sources where e.g. a slow WFS Service shall be consumed in combination with other relatively fast data sources.

It could be a helpful feature if FME Server could build a cache in order to speed up access on these data ...

Let me know whether I mix up things or if this could be a useful extension ...
