<h2 id="apache_shiro_cache_manager_overview">Apache Shiro Cache Manager Overview</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Shiro has three important cache interfaces:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p><a href="static/current/apidocs/org/apache/shiro/cache/CacheManager.html"><code>CacheManager</code></a></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><a href="static/current/apidocs/org/apache/shiro/cache/Cache.html"><code>Cache</code></a></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><a href="static/current/apidocs/org/apache/shiro/cache/CacheManagerAware.html"><code>CacheManagerAware</code></a></p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>A <code>CacheManager</code> returns <code>Cache</code> instances and various Shiro components use those <code>Cache&lt;</code> instances to cache data as necessary.
Any Shiro component that implements <code>CacheManager</code> will automatically receive a configured <code>CacheManager</code>, where it can be used to acquire <code>Cache</code> instances.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The Shiro <a href="securitymanager.html"><code>SecurityManager</code></a> implementations and all
<a href="static/current/apidocs/org/apache/shiro/realm/AuthorizingRealm.html"><code>AuthorizingRealm</code></a> implementations implement CacheManagerAware.
If you set the <code>CacheManager</code> on the <code>SecurityManager</code>, it will in turn set it on the various Realms that implement CacheManagerAware as well (OO delegation).
For example, in shiro.ini:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="title">example shiro.ini CacheManager configuration</div>
<div class="content">
<pre class="highlightjs highlight"><code class="language-ini hljs" data-lang="ini">securityManager.realms = $myRealm1, $myRealm2, ..., $myRealmN
...
cacheManager = my.implementation.of.CacheManager
...
securityManager.cacheManager = $cacheManager
# at this point, the securityManager and all CacheManagerAware
# realms have been set with the cacheManager instance</code></pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>We have an out-of-the-box <a href="static/current/apidocs/org/apache/shiro/cache/ehcache/EhCacheManager.html"><code>EhCacheManager</code></a> implementation, so you can use that today if you wanted.
Otherwise, you can implement your own <code>CacheManager</code> (e.g. with Coherence, etc.) and configure it as above, and you’ll be good to go.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="CacheManager-AuthorizationCacheInvalidation">Authorization Cache Invalidation</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Finally, note that <a href="static/current/apidocs/org/apache/shiro/realm/AuthorizingRealm.html"><code>AuthorizingRealm</code></a> has a <a href="static/current/apidocs/org/apache/shiro/realm/AuthorizingRealm.html#clearCachedAuthorizationInfo%28org.apache.shiro.subject.PrincipalCollection%29"><code>clearCachedAuthorizationInfo</code></a> method that can be called by subclasses to evict the cached authzInfo for a particular account.
It is usually called by custom logic if the corresponding account’s authz data has changed (to ensure the next authz check will pick up the new data).</p>
