Data-driven applications span a wide breadth of complexity, from simple microservices to real-time event-driven systems under significant load. Guest post by Ben Hagan from PolyScale.ai However, as any development and/or DevOps team tasked with performance improvements will attest, making data-driven apps fast globally is “non-trivial”.

If you wanted to cache a file ‘forever’, you’d probably use a Cache-Control header like this: Cache-Control: max-age=31536000 This instructs any cache that it may store and reuse a response for one year (60 seconds × 60 minutes × 24 hours × 365 days = 31,536,000 seconds ). Does Cache-Control say anything different?

Because microprocessors are so fast, computer architecture design has evolved towards adding various levels of caching between compute units and the main memory, in order to hide the latency of bringing the bits to the brains. This avoids thrashing caches too much for B and evens out the pressure on the L3 caches of the machine.
