Cache Tab
In the Cache tab you define the basic settings for connecting to the Cache Invalidation Service (RabbitMQ) from applications and OutSystems services.
Cache Invalidation Service section
This section contains configuration parameters for the cache invalidation service.
| Configuration | Description | Default value |
|---|---|---|
| Host | Hostname or IP address of the Cache Invalidation Service. Note: To make it easier to add a front-end server later, OutSystems doesn't recommend using localhost as the hostname. |
localhost |
| Port | Port used by applications and OutSystems services to communicate with the cache invalidation service. | 5672 |
| Virtual Host | Name of RabbitMQ virtual host. Virtual hosts allow you to reuse the service to other purposes having a separation from OutSystems logic. |
/outsystems |
| Username | User of the cache invalidation service used by the OutSystems platform. | admin |
| Password | Password of the user of the cache invalidation service used by the platform. Note: Currently this password can't contain special characters (for example, ?, &, ^, ", ', *, (, )). |
|
| Enable TLS | When checked, enables the usage of secure connections between applications and the cache invalidation service | Unchecked |
