| The cache manager is responsible for managing the cache contents
for the portlets. The operations on the cached portlet contents
include adding, retrieving, updating, and removing the cache
entries to/from the cache repository.
The portlet specification defines two basic portlet content
caching mechanisms: EXPIRATION cache and VALIDATING cache.
Regardless of which mechanism gets used, the cache (mechanism)
is per portlet entity per user session. The cached data should
not be shared across different users of the same portlet entity.
CacheManager is an interface that is used by the
portlet container.
