Abstract

Example distributed caching systems and methods are described. In one implementation, a system has multiple host systems, each of which includes a cache resource that is accessed by one or more consumers. A management server is coupled to the multiple host systems and presents available cache resources and resources associated with available host systems to a user. The management server receives a user selection of at least one available cache resource and at least one host system. The selected host system is then configured to share the selected cache resource.
