How do I implement memory caching in my application?

To implement memory caching, you can use libraries like Redis or Memcached. Which programming language are you using?

I'm using Python. Can you give me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example using the cachetools library:

from cachetools import cached, TTLCache

cache = TTLCache(maxsize=100, ttl=300)

@cached(cache)
def get_data(key):
    # Simulate a slow data retrieval
    return expensive_data_retrieval(key)

What are the benefits of using memory caching?

Memory caching improves performance by reducing data retrieval times and decreasing load on your database.
