Supportability of custom developments in SPS 2013 and APPFabric Cache

2013-06-05T21:25:00Z

Hi all

I would like to clarify the next section from the documentation Plan for feeds and the Distributed Cache service in SharePoint Server 2013 http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219572.aspx#plandc

If you are using custom applications in SharePoint Server 2013 which use the AppFabric client APIs, or are creating custom caches, you should create a separate AppFabric cache cluster to support your custom applications. Do not use the AppFabric cache cluster supporting your SharePoint Server 2013 farm. Run your separate AppFabric cache cluster for your custom applications on separate servers from the servers dedicated to your SharePoint Server 2013 farm.

Basically, that means:

It's NOT SUPPORTED custom applications that use the AppFabric client APIs, or are creating custom caches from the SharePoint 2013 environment. The only way to have a SUPPORTED environment it's to have a dedicated AppFabric cache cluster for your custom applications on separate servers from the servers dedicated to your SharePoint Server 2013 farm.

Please, take that in account in future developments and in any future Premeir Support cases.

THX

PS:I asked for a modification on the article to explicity say not supported.

Hola

Estas son las direcciones para descargar los respectivos Language Packs para Catalán, Gallego y Vasco para SPS 2013 y Project Server 2013

El proceso de instalación como sabéis siempre es primero Foundation y luego Server. No obstante haremos pruebas para corroborar que no ha cambiado.

En instalaciones de Project Server 2013, la funcionalidad de Project Server 2013 no está traducida a estos lenguajes pero si la de SharePoint 2013. Para más información sobre ello os referimos a la siguiente dirección
