 24  
  * <p>Shiro doesn't implement a full Cache mechanism itself, since that is outside the core competency of a
 25  
  * Security framework.  Instead, this interface provides an abstraction (wrapper) API on top of an underlying
 26  
  * cache framework's main Manager component (e.g. JCache, Ehcache, JCS, OSCache, JBossCache, TerraCotta, Coherence,
 27  
  * GigaSpaces, etc, etc), allowing a Shiro user to configure any cache mechanism they choose.
