What the Hell is your Cache: Educational Programme on Caching

Caching is a well-known technique for speeding up data access in IT systems — but many systems analysts have never worked with it directly. Often, caching is implemented by developers while staying out of sight for analysts, even though it can significantly affect system behaviour.

We will find out why caching is important, and why you shouldn’t cache everything. Why websites need cookies, what an application cache is— we’ll also figure it out.

The talk is intended to help you understand and organise your knowledge of caching as a tool.
