Data caching per request in Owin application

Question

In traditional ASP.NET applications (that use System.Web), I\'m able to cache data in

HttpContext.Current.Items 

Now in Owin the HttpConte

Answer 1

Finally I found OwinRequestScopeContext. Very simple to use.

In the Startup class:

app.UseRequestScopeContext();

Then I can add per request cache like this:

OwinRequestScopeContext.Current.Items["myclient"] = new Client();

Then anywhere in my code I can do (just like HttpContext.Current):

var currentClient = OwinRequestScopeContext.Current.Items["myclient"] as Client;

Here is the source code if you're curious. It uses CallContext.LogicalGetData and LogicalSetData. Does any one see any problem with this approach of caching request data?
