When what will be supported? What does this mean?

As per the thread subject. More details here.

The subject is vague & meaningless without details. As there’s currently no feature request for a caching client that uses Redis 6 BCAST/CLIENT TRACKING, it’s not being prioritized or considered.

In addition to the Redis Cache Client there’s also a Multi CacheClient which lets you register a “write through” local memory & redis-server backed caching library with:

container.Register<ICacheClient>(c => new MultiCacheClient(
    new MemoryCacheClient(),
    c.Resolve<IRedisClientsManager>().GetCacheClient()));

That looks interesting, but unless i have missed something, there is no automatic mechanism for the local cache entries to be removed/updated if the redis server is updated? Our setup is distributed with multiple devices reading/writing to the cache.

Right, it’s a simple write through cache which only expires when the cache entry expires, i.e. local memory caches doesn’t get invalidated with changes made to the redis server outside of the client.
