Caching Strategies

Cut latency with caches

Caching stores computed or fetched results for reuse; choose keys, TTLs, and invalidation rules to balance freshness and performance.

Decide What to Cache

Cache read-heavy, slow-to-compute, or external call results.

Set Policies

Pick TTLs, size limits, and eviction; choose write strategies.

Invalidate Safely

Purge on writes or use versioned keys to avoid stale data.
