Hi! I'm upgrading a service from 0.12 to 1.0.* and can't find what replaced

fs_file_cache

from

dagster.core.storage.file_cache

, all I can see is that it was removed in 0.15

Hi Colo, there’s no direct replacement to FileCache - we removed it because it’s been rarely used and its use cases can be addressed by other concepts. I’d recommend using IO Manager or Resource instead depending on your needs. What are you using FileCache for at the moment?

I see, thanks Yuhan! We currently use it for caching files from s3

Here’s an example of using s3 io managers w/ assets: https://docs.dagster.io/concepts/io-management/io-managers#applying-io-managers-to-assets

Hi @yuhan/all, I noticed the File Manager class became tagged as Experimental from 1.0.0 onwards. What changed here?

No changes there. we tagged it Experimental as part of 1.0 API surface area cleanup (e.g. tagging things that may change in the future Experimental) — File Manager wasn’t in heavy usage prior to 1.0, so as/if more use cases come up, we may improve this API. That’s the main reason why we made it experimental going to 1.0

thanks for clarifying!
