Image/content caching and containers

Does anyone have experience with caching with containers? Is it advisable to move the cache to a volume for example? I already have images stored in a bind mount on the host, and I figured it would be good to also store the cache outside the container to prevent images of being cropped on every first request after a restart.

I am just starting to dabble with containers, but yes absolutely I have the umbraco/Data directory in a volume, as well as umbraco/Logs and wwwroot/media. I don’t want to loose any of that when I rebuild the container.

I guess it’s fine not to have the disk cache outside of the container but it will make your application boot take a lot longer because it needs to rebuild everything.

We’re hosting in azure and all media and media cache is in a blob storage. So it’s outside the container. Which I think is where it should be anyway.

Thanks! Yeah I already had the media in a bind mount, altough I am reconsidering just using a volume due to issues I had with write permissions. I just added the volumes for the cache and logs.
