Active Memory Caching. When you want to get data that you already had quickly, you need to do caching — caching stores data that a user recently retrieved. Caching partially stores your data and is not used as permanent storage. Caching partially stores your data and is not used as permanent storage.

In fact, before we even had the word microservices in our lexicon, back when it was just good old-fashioned service-oriented architecture, we were talking about data: how to access it, where it lives, who “owns” it. Back then, the most common pattern I saw for service-based systems was sharing a database among multiple services.
