Cache functions

Use cache functions to specify a value for each of the cache variables defined for a flow, and additionally, to alter an already specified value for a cache variable.

Cache variables act as a means to process information throughout a flow instance without requiring the use of data links. Cache variables persist in the cache until they are deleted from the cache.

Cache variables are name value pairs that exist after the flow instance completes execution. Cache variables are case-sensitive. Cache variables are not instance specific unlike flow variables. Cache variables are accessible to all flow instances that are running simultaneously with in the current process and across all flow instances running on the system.
