Rails 8's Solid Cache lets you ditch Redis for database-backed caching — bigger caches, lower costs, simpler infrastructure. Here's how to set it up and when it makes sense for your app. #Rails8 #RubyOnRails #SolidCache #WebDev #BackendDevelopment #RailsDevelopment #Caching #DevOps blog.saeloun.com/2026/05/26/…

Upgrade to Rails 8 with confidence! Our guide covers Solid Queue, Solid Cache, built-in authentication, and Ruby 3.4 performance gains — the smoothest Rails upgrade yet. Read More ... blog.saeloun.com/2026/02/26/… #Rails8 #RubyOnRails #SolidQueue #SolidCache #Kamal #WebDev #RailsUpgrade #Ruby34

I believe SolidCache also needs to have the database specified correctly in `config/cache.yml` as by default it only appears in the production env:

I'm seeing a lot of tech stack reveals. Happy to share our 2025 formula! Front: rails 8 hotwire Back: rails 8 SolidQueue Db: pg (4ever) Cache: SolidCache on SQLite Mail routing: @Scaleway' SMTP Incoming mails: Postfix Hosting: OVH baremetal (Europe North America)

Thank you! Web app only at the moment. It's Rails 8.1, RubyLLM (which got extracted from Chat with Work!), AsyncJob Redis, ActionCable Redis, SolidCache, Hotwire, Herb.

SolidCacheは正直SQLiteで動かす意味がわからん #kaigionrails

I believe Solid* is for parts of the ecosystem related to the storage layer, such as SolidCache, SolidQueue, etc. Solid coming from it being in persistent storage (SSD). Active* makes more sense for this project IMO. Have you considered changing “Prompt” instead of “Active”?

I built a simple dashboard for SolidCache to: • See cache hits/misses in real time • Spot which keys are bloating memory • Expire keys manually if needed Might OSS it if anyone else finds this useful. Y’all want it?

Trying to setup a rails 8 app with psql db and SQLite #solidCache. Solid_cache:install seems to give a cache schema file with no table data? So the DB is empty. Anyone else got this running?

Rails 8's #SolidCache uses affordable NVMe drives for caching, offering much more storage than RAM at a lower cost. In this episode of Rails 8 Unpacked, @typecraft_dev demonstrates how Solid Cache speeds up a Rails app, cuts infrastructure costs, eliminates the need for Redis, and enhances performance: youtu.be/mA6somzKYEg?si=ddTh…

Our latest blog is on Benchmarking caching in Rails with Redis vs the alternatives. We compared Redis with alternatives like Valkey, DragonflyDB, DiceDB, SolidCache, and LiteCache, focusing on #performance. Check out the results! buff.ly/3Eo4Uno #redis #rails

The Solid Trifecta is a set of database adapters in #Rails8 that simplifies app development by replacing traditional RAM-based solutions with efficient, cost-effective database-backed tools. In this quick overview, @typecraft_dev lays it all out: #SolidCable handles WebSocket messages, #SolidCache powers caching, and #SolidQueue manages job queues, all using databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQLite. youtu.be/FpfAu20I00A?si=14RK…

For reference, I also asked this question on the SolidCache repo: github.com/rails/solid_cache… 👍

Haven't tried it, but based on some of my Rails8/Solid side projects it seems pretty doable. I haven't done anything with SolidCache, but I assume it gets a separate definition in database.yml like all the other Solid stuff:

rails8 触ってみたけど器用な万能感が凄い すべて先読みされているかのようだ 認証はdeviseが面倒 →組み込みで入った 一時的なデータ作るの苦手 →SolidCacheが入った レートリミット入れ込まなきゃ →rate_limitが入った ファイルサーブが苦手 →Thrusterが入った デプロイが面倒 →Kamal2が入った

Hey Rails friends... anyone else seeing this when using SolidCache? In console, I try to do: `Rails.cache.write(:key, "value")` But receive: ./gems/irb-1.13.1/lib/irb.rb:1277:in `full_message': undefined method `model' for class SolidCache::Entry (NoMethodError)

This principle applies to infrastructure as well which is why I'm bullish on recent innovations in the Rails ecosystem that focus on promoting SQLite as a first class citizen and tech like SolidCache, SolidQueue, and LiteStack, etc. github.com/oldmoe/litestack

I want someone to make “Mediumstack”: Postgres configured to back everything: queue, ActionCable, ActiveStorage for file uploads to DB, and caching. I know SolidQueue and SolidCache are going to handle the first and the last one, but I’d love for the full stack to be as easy as Liteestack.

SolidQueueはRails 7.1, SolidCacheはRails 7を要求するんだな。ふーぬー。
