Dion Almaer: Give your DB a break
Dion Almaer (focused on Java, but interesting nevertheless):
"This article discusses how caching data in front of the database can give our DB a break, and allow for faster running, and more available applications.
In particular, We will look at:
- What is clustering?
- Using a distributed cache
- Caching strategies
- Read-through / Write-behind caching
- Technologies that integrate nicely into this architecture"
