Proxy: Implementation and Example

Explore the Proxy design pattern in C# by simulating a costly data retrieval service. Understand how to create proxy classes that cache results to boost performance and implement efficient, maintainable software structures.

Implementing the Proxy design pattern

Let’s imagine that we have some back-end service that we can retrieve data from and submit new data to. However, retrieving the data happens to be a long and computationally expensive process. This is what we’ll simulate to demonstrate how the Proxy design pattern can be applied to solve such a problem.

Creating a new application

We’ll create a new .NET console application, and we will add the IDataService ...
