Record Caching

Starting with release 3.0, VuFind supports the option of storing records from search backends in the local database. This is primarily designed to ensure that user favorite lists remain functional and performant even when search providers are slow or records are deleted; however, it may have additional applications as well.

Setting Up Caching

Caching can be configured individually for each backend. There are also separate settings for normal record access and favorite lists. Typical setup would be to use the cache as a fallback by default when a record is no longer available and as the primary source in favorite lists to speed up the retrieval of records.

See RecordCache.ini for details.
