The main innovation the authors introduce here is the use of linear spline fitting for training (as opposed to e.g. linear regression with an MSE loss function). During inference, each layer of the model takes the key as an input and linearly transforms it to obtain a value, which is used as an index to pick a model in the next layer.

Languages: Java. Java used to power core file system code. For highly scalable services, going outside of java process is costly, even to go to Memcache or Redis so we do in-memory cache with varying TTL for some highly used data structures like access control computation, feature flags, routing metadata etc. Cloud Platform.
