What is the best way to get a Member in code, that doesn't hit the database? I've looked at memberManager.FindByIdAsync() but under the hood this uses the memberService. I was looking for something like the IPublishedContentQuery that is more cache based, am I missing something here?

There is no member cache.. not sure how you expect to create a member without it being stored in the db?

Yeah, it was more the Get side of things. Our site is a bit "chatty" and we create members in code, have SavedHandlers etc, and we're seeing some database scope issues, when creating a new member. But if there aren't any "cached" Get endpoints to hit, we'll have to think of something else

Think there's some kind of minimal repository cache, but nothing you should count on -- if you need to then you can just throw it in the RuntimeCache for a few minutes, or longer if you want to invalidate the caches individually. Are you working on a package? Sounds like v13? SavedHandler no longer exists in v17. Think this might be more of an #1443515195891646537 question, not a package question?

Yeah, its a more general umbraco chat sorry. This is V17 so what i call a SavedHandler i really mean SavedNotification 😆 I'm going to look into a simple Examine search for members, as in most cases we dont actually need the full member model, just a property or 2

All good! And yeah, hard to keep track of old and new terminologyh 😉
