I’ve been working on (albeit slowly) getting the keystone implementation of dogpile.cache into oslo.cache. It’s been slow due to other demands, but I’m hoping to get back to it in the near future here so we can make moves like this more easily.

dogpile.cache would be substantially lighter on the client-side as it only has a hard dependency on dogpile.core. It supports plenty of backends beyond memcached and we already use it in keystone quite heavily.

Hi folks, has there been any discussion on using oslo.cache within the auth_token middleware to allow for using other cache backends besides memcached? I didn’t find a Keystone blueprint for it, and was considering registering one for Juno if the team thinks this feature makes sense. I’d be happy to put some time into the implementation.

That does make sense. We need to look at the dependency graph between the keystoneclient and oslo.cache, though. It appears the current version of oslo.cache is going to bring in quite a few oslo libraries that we would not want keystoneclient to depend on [1]. Moving the middleware to a separate library would solve that.
