Answer 1

create your own cache type by declaring the following in your config.xml

<global>
    <cache>
        <types>
            <custom translate="label,description" module="module">
                <label>Custom Cache</label>
                <description>This is my custom cacge</description>
                <tags>CUSTOM_CACHE_TAG</tags>
            </custom >
        </types>
    </cache>
</global>

Hope This Helps!
