Cache Namespaces

Each backend search block can define a Redis cache namespace through cache_name.

Current locations:

• auth.backends.ldap.search[].cache_name
• auth.backends.lua.backend.search[].cache_name

LDAP Example

auth:
  backends:
    ldap:
      search:
        - protocol:
            - imap
            - pop3
            - lmtp
          cache_name: "dovecot"
        - protocol:
            - smtp
            - submission
          cache_name: "submission"

Lua Example

auth:
  backends:
    lua:
      backend:
        search:
          - protocol:
              - oidc
              - saml
            cache_name: "identity"

TTL behavior comes from:

• storage.redis.positive_cache_ttl
• storage.redis.negative_cache_ttl
