Internally, Caché stores data in [[multidimensional array]]s capable of carrying [[hierarchical database model|hierarchically structured data]].  These are the same “global” data structures used by the [[MUMPS]] programming language, which influenced the design of Caché, and are similar to those used by [[MultiValue]] (also known as PICK) systems. In most{{How many|date=August 2014}} applications, however, [[Object (computer science)|object]] and/or [[SQL]] access methods are used.

[[Caché ObjectScript]], [[Caché Basic]] or [[SQL]] can be used to develop application business logic. External interfaces include native [[object binding]] for [[C++]], [[Java programming language|Java]], [[EJB]], [[ActiveX]], and [[.NET Framework|.NET]]. Caché supports [[JDBC]] and [[ODBC]] for relational access. [[XML]] and [[web service]]s are also supported.

Caché Server Pages (CSP) technology allows [[tag-based language|tag-based]] creation of [[web application]]s that generate [[dynamic web page]]s, typically using data from a Caché database. Caché also includes InterSystems Zen, an implementation of [[AJAX]] that enables component-based development of [[rich web application]]s.
