Event: Bangalore Systems Meetup #3

Caching is probably the most deceptive fundamental concept that most of us come across.

If caching could be imagined as a movie, it would be a thriller with most exciting surprises. You would see life changing wins like performance optimisations saving 99% of the costs, so many different ways of using it, back stabbing surprises, and few characters like Captain Jack Sparrow the weird or ones like Spock the wise.

I tried to generalise the concept of using caching in a system, and what everyone should be prepared for in that system.
