caches: use individual namespaces per user to prevent beaker caching problems. - especially for mysql in case large number of data in caches there could be critical errors storing cache, and thus preventing users from authentication. This is caused by the fact that we used single namespace for ALL users. It means it grew as number of users grew reaching mysql single column limit. This changes the behaviour and now we use namespace per-user it means that each user-id will have it's own cache namespace fragmenting maximum column data to a single user cache. Which we should never reach.

Extensions & Hooks

The extensions & hooks section references three concepts regularly, so to clarify what is meant each time, read the following definitions:

  • Plugin: A Plugin is software that adds a specific feature to an existing software application.
  • Extension: An extension extends the capabilities of, or the data available to, an existing software application.
  • Hook: A hook intercepts function calls, messages, or events passed between software components and can be used to trigger plugins, or their extensions.
