    There are some very good distributed caching solution available in the market and they are doing a very good job so far. But personally I am a big fan of NCache . It is an in-memory distributed cache by Alachisoft and it is famous among the developers because of its rich and wide range of topologies. Just for the information, FREE version of NCache is also available now which is called NCache Express

    Hazelcast, for example, is an open source, transactional, distributed in-memory caching solution for Java. It is released under Apache license. Hazelcast users love it because it is super simple, scales dynamically and just works!
