Distributed caching
Distributed caching techniques will be helpful to improve the scalability in our web services. Unlike in-process caches, distributed caches need not be built in the same application space. They can be stored on multiple nodes of a cluster. Although distributed caches are deployed on multiple nodes, they offer a single state of the cache.
Data-tier caching
Adding a caching layer in the database will provide better performance. It is considered a common strategy for improving performance, especially when read requests are heavy in our application. Here, we will discuss Hibernate's levels of caching.
First-level caching
A first-level cache is an inbuilt session cache enabled by Hibernate, and it is a mandatory cache through all requests. There is no option to disable first-level caching in Hibernate. First-level caching is associated with a session object and will be lost once the session is expired. When we query the web service for the first time, the object is retrieved from...
