What EHCache alternatives are there?

[bronze kettle]

Hello, at work, an application currently uses EHCache.

For contractual reasons, we can no longer use EHCache.

The application works without an L2cache, but is very slow.

What alternate L2Cache implementations are available and a good idea to use in 2023? The application uses Java 11, and cannot be upgraded to 17.

The application inherently uses spring data as it's ORM.

*EDIT*

The l2Cache must not be an external application.

While you are waiting for getting help, here are some tips to improve your experience:

Code is much easier to read if posted with syntax highlighting and proper formatting.

If nobody is calling back, that usually means that your question was not well asked and hence nobody feels confident enough answering. Try to use your time to elaborate, provide details, context, more code, examples and maybe some screenshots. With enough info, someone knows the answer for sure.

Don't forget to close your thread using the command </help-thread close:1027500463647621170> when your question has been answered, thanks.

Is RocksDB a 2nd level cache, or is it just another nosql database?

I went to their homepage and it looks like it is another nosql db

Well total depends if your application can bear cost you can go with Google Cloud Memcache or Redis but you can configure memcache as per requirement if you don't want to use. @bronze kettle

Cost isn't a problem, but introducing external applications is.

Also, doesn't going to an external server kinda invalidate the whole purpose of an L2 cache?
