SaunaCache
SaunaCache is a small key-value store that other plugins use to share state between servers of one network, without running Redis yourself.
| Feature | Read more |
|---|---|
| Player state that follows a player between servers | Namespaces |
| Short distributed locks, for example to stop double rewards | Developer guide |
| Leaderboards as sorted sets with a TTL per namespace | Developer guide |
| Snapshot export of a namespace as JSON | Snapshots |
Other plugins find SaunaCache through its Bukkit service; you only configure it once per server.
How it works
Section titled “How it works”Each server keeps a local cache (local-cache.max-entries) in front of the shared store in eu-north.
Reads hit the local cache first; writes go to the shared store and invalidate the other servers’ local
copies within about 100 ms. Idle namespaces are unloaded from memory after ten minutes (0.6.0).
