Very interesting. First thought is do you even need caching? How many users do you have? Why do you think aws rinvent will cause people to start using this site

Very interesting. First thought is do you even need caching? How many users do you have? Why do you think aws rinvent will cause people to start using this site? First time hearing about aws-news.com.
- SideburnsOfDoom 2y agoI read this more as a "toy problem" - a demo on how to do caching well, than as "this data needs caching, today". i.e. a tutorial, because sooner or later you will benefit from caching. As such I think it's a well written clear example. But you always need to bear in mind that a toy problem simple enough to demo a technique clearly, is seldom complex enough to need the technique.
- halJordan 2y agoTo me reading this, I wonder if you also tell programmers they must avoid cache hits in L1/L2 because they simply dont need the performance, and because they don't need it they aren't allowed to use it.

- hshshshshsh 2y agoMy comment was specifically about this news site. What you brought up is completely different use case. I never said use my comment and apply everywhere caching can help.
