But we cannot search or present low latency retrievals from files Etc. The solution which we present in this blog is not limited to annotations and can be used for any other domain which uses ES and Cassandra as well. Using memcache allows us to keep latencies for our search low (most of our queries are less than 100ms).

Key Takeaways Critical performance indicators such as latency, CPU usage, memory utilization, hit rate, and number of connected clients/slaves/evictions must be monitored to maintain Redis’s high throughput and low latency capabilities. Similarly, an increased throughput signifies an intensive workload on a server and a larger latency.

Compression in any database is necessary as it has many advantages, like storage reduction, data transmission time, etc. Storage reduction alone results in significant cost savings, and we can save more data in the same space. When this data block is read, it decompresses it in memory and presents it to the incoming request.
