Top caching libraries for .NET

Question

What caching libraries would you consider to be the most important or useful for .NET?

I'm asking because I need to contact them to see they plan on supporting .NET 4.0's caching framework.

Aside from the ASP.NET cache, the only one I've seen in common use (and used myself) is Microsoft's own Caching Application Block in the Enterprise Library.

That got promoted to be part of .NET 4.0. But the way its written it's just begging for other caching frameworks to use the same API. – Jonathan Allen May 13 '10 at 06:58

I agree with @royaan here. NCache is much more faster and reliable than any other caching solution available for .NET. Plus, they also have JvCache for java, which is compatible with NCache in their upcoming version. That could prove to be useful in complex environments. – Wasiq Ali Feb 26 '14 at 12:02
