Caching is the practice of storing copies of data in high-speed temporary storage to fulfill subsequent requests faster.
Detailed Technical Explanation
Business Perspective
Caching reduces server infrastructure costs, speeds up page load times, and improves user experience.
Technical Perspective
Requires defining clear cache key eviction rules (LRU) and HTTP `Cache-Control` header directives.
Real-World Example
Caching product catalog query results in Redis for 10 minutes to reduce database read load.
Common Architectural Mistakes
- ✗Caching Stale Dynamic Data: Failing to invalidate cached keys when underlying database records are updated.
