'''iCache''', or '''item cache''', is a highly distributed and fault-tolerant storage/query engine used by [[StarCitizen:Star Citizen|''Star Citizen'']] that greatly out-performs the legacy [[StarCitizen:pCache]].<ref name=":1">{{Cite RSI|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/en/comm-link/transmission/17036-Star-Citizen-Monthly-Report-March-2019|text=Star Citizen Monthly Report: March 2019|accessdate=2019-04-12}}</ref>

This system is important, particularly as the [[StarCitizen:Persistent Universe]] sees greater [[StarCitizen:Player count|volumes of players]] and [[StarCitizen:server meshing]] comes online.<ref name=":1" />
