README

Caching

Purpose

Add a cache with a clear invalidation story, or find out why the existing one is serving stale data. A cache is a second source of truth; introducing one is a consistency decision, not just a performance one.

When to Use

  • A read path is slow and the data is read far more often than it is written.
  • An upstream dependency is expensive, rate-limited, or unreliable.
  • Debugging stale reads, cache stampedes, or unexplained memory growth.

Capabilities

  • Cache placement: client, CDN, application, database.
  • Strategies: cache-aside, read-through, write-through, write-behind.
  • Invalidation: TTL, explicit, event-driven, versioned keys.
  • Stampede protection: locking, early recomputation, request coalescing.
  • Negative caching and hot-key mitigation.

Inputs

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
