| Data in your client application's <%=vars.product_name%> cache must be serializable to be shared with <%=vars.product_name%> servers and other |
| <%=vars.product_name%> clients. |
| <%=vars.product_name%> provides multiple data serialization options for storage and transmittal |
| between processes, of which **<%=vars.product_name%> Portable Data eXchange (PDX) serialization** offers |
| the best combination of versatility and ease-of-use for most applications. |
| |
| To learn more about other serialization options, see the [Data Serialization section in the _<%=vars.product_name_long%> User Guide_](/serverman/developing/data_serialization/chapter_overview.html). |
