What are some alternatives to the cache-aside pattern?

Some alternatives include write-through caching, read-through caching, and lazy loading. Would you like to know more about any of these?

Can you explain write-through caching?

Sure! In write-through caching, data is written to both the cache and the underlying data store simultaneously, ensuring consistency.

What are the pros and cons of using read-through caching?

Read-through caching automatically loads data into the cache on a cache miss, which can improve performance but may add latency on the first read.

How does lazy loading differ from these methods?

Lazy loading only loads data when it's needed, which can save resources but may lead to delays if data is not pre-fetched.
