BIMcloud Delta Cache

Note: Not available in BIMcloud Basic.

The BIMcloud Delta Cache component optimizes data transfer between the ARCHICAD clients and a BIMcloud Server by caching the data on the client side. Once an ARCHICAD client downloads a part of the project, the data will be cached locally by the BIMcloud Delta Cache and offered to the next ARCHICAD client who requests the same data.

Install Delta Cache

1.Launch the BIMcloud Installer wizard.

2.On the wizard’s component selection screen, choose Install single component and choose BIMcloud Delta Cache.
