What is caching? In computing, a cache is a high-speed data storage layer that stores a subset of data, typically transient in nature, so that future requests for that data are served up faster than is possible by accessing the data’s primary storage location. Caching allows you to efficiently reuse…

Hello readers, Thank you so much for reading and liking my blog. your likes and comments encourage me to keep up with my work. I know it’s been a long since I have posted anything. There are few things coming up in line which includes: Distributed cache system design TinyURL…

To begin with, consider the following example.

In the previous article, we have studied transaction and locks. Transaction and Locks The moment we heard about the transaction, we start thinking about the database. However, the concept of a transaction…medium.com In this article, we will study more about transactions specifically distributed transactions and locks. We will look at various use cases to see how is transaction is being taken care of in a monolith and in a microservice architecture?

The moment we heard about the transaction, we start thinking about the database. However, the concept of a transaction is not limited only to DB but also to non-DB implementations like OS operations.

Previously, In this series, we have already discussed scaling concepts pretty well.
