FineBuild can install and configure the SQL Cache Manager as part of the SQL Server install process.
SQL Cache Manager is written by Blake Pell. It was originally chosen to be included in FineBuild because it allows the DBA to view and manage the SQL Server Plan Cache. However, it has not been maintained for a number of years and cannot be installed on SQL2012 or above.
