I have a requirement that needs to fetch Caching Details which includes:
Analyze the current system caching which includes CDN setup, enabled HTML, data cache etc with invalidating of cache suggest.
I need to get Sitecore instance caching details in non Sitecore application like Windows Application.
What are the options to get Sitecore Instance Details in non Sitecore Application
What all inputs i should provide to non Sitecore application to get Sitecore instance details.
The non Sitecore application will be used as a tool which gets Sitecore application(Sitecore Instance) details like pipelines,workflows,caching etc.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.
