Other methods of the `IDistributedCache<BookCacheItem>` are same as ASP.NET Core's `IDistributedCache` interface, so you can refer [it's documentation](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/performance/caching/distributed).
## IDistributedCache<TCacheItem, TCacheKey> Interface
## `IDistributedCache<TCacheItem, TCacheKey>` Interface
ABP framework also defines the generic `IDistributedCache<TCacheItem, TCacheKey>` interface in the [Volo.Abp.Caching](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Volo.Abp.Caching/) package. `TCacheItem` is the type of the object and `TCacheKey` as the type of the key stored in the cache. `IDistributedCache<TCacheItem>` interface is a type of `IDistributedCache<TCacheItem, string>` for simplified usage.
`IDistributedCache<TCacheItem>` interface assumes that the type of your cache key is `string` (so, you need to manually convert your key to string if you need to use a different kind of cache key). `IDistributedCache<TCacheItem, TCacheKey>` can be used when your cache key type is not `string`.

* This sample service uses the `GetOrAddAsync()` method to get a book item from the cache.
* Since cache explicitly implemented as using `Guid` as cache key, `Guid` value passed to `_cache_GetOrAddAsync()` method.
In some cases may also want to use a complex object as cache key.
`IDistributedCache<TCacheItem, TCacheKey>` internally uses `ToString()` method of the key object to convert it to a string. If you need to use a complex object as the cache key, you need to override `ToString` method of your class.
An example class to store an item in the cache and using itself as the cache key:
An example class that is used as a cache key:
````csharp

public float Price { get; set; }
public Guid OrganizationId { get; set; }

* This sample service uses the `GetOrAddAsync()` method using complex object as a cache key to cache the same object.
* **Important note to use complex object as cache key** is to override the `ToString` method of your object since default `ToString` method returns the class name and will be same for all the objects.
* Since cache explicitly implemented as using complex `BookCacheItem` as cache key, `BookCacheItem` type value passed to `_cache_GetOrAddAsync()` method.
* Any class can be used as cache key while keeping on mind to override the `ToString` method of the class to produce a unique string.
