# Creating a Platform Cache Partition

Your managed package comes with a platform cache partition and you can create a new one if needed.

To create a platform cache partition:

1. From Setup, in the **Quick Find** box, enter Platform.
2. Click **Platform Cache**.
    
    ![The Platform Cache Partition page lists a partition named DefaultCachePartition.](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-ind-comms_media_energy_managed-264-0-0-production-enus/ff4079f6-a384-475c-b863-578bbbb0ef9b/resources-product/images/salesforce_platformcachepartition_nocpq.jpg)
3. Click **New Platform Cache Partition**.
4. On the **New Platform Cache Partition** page, in the **Detail** section, enter the following information:
    
    - **Label** is CPQPartition.
    - **Name** is CPQPartition.
5. In the **Org Cache Allocation** list, in the **Organization** box, enter a number between one and the maximum cache allowed on your org.
    
    Org cache stores the query results for context mappings and dimensions, including changes made by CacheQueryStore. The Org Cache also contains rules information
6. In the **Session Cache Allocation** list, in the **Organization** box enter one of the following values:
    
    - Session Cache is no longer used for aggregate context mappings after CME Summer ’19.
    - For CME Fall ’19 and later, use a session cache value of 1.
7. Click **Save**.
