.SH PROXY CACHE OVERLAY
The proxy cache overlay
allows caching of LDAP search requests (queries) in a local database.
For an incoming query, the
proxy cache determines its corresponding \fBtemplate\fP. If the template was
specified as cacheable using the \fBproxytemplate\fP directive and the request is
contained in a cached request, it is answered from the proxy cache. Otherwise,
the search is performed as usual and cacheable search results are saved in the
cache for use in future queries.
.LP
A template is defined by a filter string and an index identifying a set of
attributes. The \fBtemplate string\fP for a query can be obtained by
removing assertion values from the RFC 2254 representation of its search
filter. A query belongs to a template if its template string and set of
projected attributes correspond to a cacheable template. Examples of template strings are (mail=), (|(sn=)(cn=)), (&(sn=)(givenName=)).
.LP
The following cache specific directives can be used to configure the proxy
cache:
.TP
.B overlay proxycache
This directive adds the proxycache overlay to the current backend. The
proxycache overlay may be used with any backend but is intended for use
with the
.B ldap
and
.B meta
backends.
.TP
.B proxycache <database> <max_entries> <numattrsets> <entry_limit> <cc_period>
The directive enables proxy caching in the current backend and sets general
cache parameters. A <database> backend will be used internally to maintain
the cached entries. The chosen database will need to be configured as well,
as shown below. Cache replacement is invoked when the cache size grows to
<max_entries> entries and continues till the cache size drops below this size.
<numattrsets> should be equal to the number of following \fBproxyattrset\fP
directives. Queries are cached only if they correspond to a cacheable template
(specified by the \fBproxytemplate\fP directive) and the number of entries
returned is less than <entry_limit>. Consistency check is performed every
<cc_period> duration (specified in secs). In each cycle queries with expired
"time to live(\fBTTL\fP)" are removed. A sample cache configuration is:
.LP
.RS
proxycache \fBbdb 10000 1 50 100\fP
.RE
.TP
.B proxyattrset <index> <attrs...>
Used to associate a set of attributes <attrs..> with an <index>. Each attribute
set is associated with an integer from 0 to <numattrsets>-1. These indices are
used by the \fBproxytemplate\fP directive to define cacheable templates.
.TP
.B proxytemplate <template_string> <attrset_index> <ttl>
Specifies a cacheable template and "time to live" (in sec) <ttl> of queries
belonging to the template.
.LP
The following adds a template with filter string (&sn=)(givenName=)) and attributes mail, postaladdress, telephonenumber and a TTL of 1 hour.
.LP
.RS
.nf
proxyattrset \fB0 mail postaladdress telephonenumber\fP
proxytemplate \fB(&(sn=)(givenName=)) 0 3600\fP

Directives for configuring the underlying database must also be given, as
shown here:

Any valid directives for the chosen database type may be used.

.SH SYNOPSIS
ETCDIR/slapd.conf
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.B pcache
overlay to
.BR slapd (8)
allows caching of LDAP search requests (queries) in a local database.
For an incoming query, the
proxy cache determines its corresponding \fBtemplate\fP. If the template
was specified as cacheable using the \fBproxytemplate\fP directive
and the request is contained in a cached request, it is answered from
the proxy cache.
Otherwise, the search is performed as usual and cacheable search results
are saved in the cache for use in future queries.
