    why macro? need the cache? can use partial view and child actions and get data from database https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/reference/templating/mvc/child-actions

    If you need cache, use outputcache or dunotcaching

    It's going to be part of a plugin. The view will be inside the App_plugins folder.
