# Caching Strategies Knowledge Base

Quick reference for caching patterns, invalidation strategies, and Redis implementation guidelines. Focuses on caching theory and Redis patterns — for Cache-Aside code generation, see `create-cache-aside`.

## Caching Strategies

| Strategy | How It Works | Consistency | Performance | Use Case |
|----------|-------------|-------------|-------------|----------|
| Cache-Aside | App reads cache first, fetches from DB on miss, writes to cache | Eventual | Read-heavy | General purpose, most common |
| Read-Through | Cache itself fetches from DB on miss | Eventual | Read-heavy | Transparent caching layer |
| Write-Through | App writes to cache and DB synchronously | Strong | Write-heavy (slower writes) | Consistency-critical data |
| Write-Behind | App writes to cache, cache writes to DB asynchronously | Eventual | Write-heavy (fast writes) | High write throughput |
| Write-Around | App writes directly to DB, cache populated on read | Eventual | Infrequent-read data | Write-once, read-later |
