Quote:

Oracle Names version 8 provides a client cache daemon process that allows a client
on most platforms to store information retrieved from a Names Server in its local
cache. Whenever a client makes a subsequent connection request, it first checks its
local cache for the address information. If the information is located, and if it has
not exceeded a specified time to live (TTL), the client will use the information to
connect to a server, saving the time it would normally take to re-query the Names
Server.
The local client-side cache is particularly advantageous if at any time a Names
Server is not available. In this case, the local client-side cache has a current list of

recently accessed services.
