Mitigating Cache Failure Modes in High-Concurrency Architectures

Distributed architectures depend on caching layers to maintain low latency and protect backend storage from excessive load. Despite their benefits, caching strategies introduce specific failure scenarios that can compromise system stability. Three critical issues often arise: cache penetration, cache breakdown, and cache avalanche. Understandin ...
