Server-side flash caching is a great way to improve application performance but which type of caching is the best? The answer depends on the workload and the importance of data protection. Read caching is the least risky and may provide all the performance needed, but may not be enough for some write-heavy workloads. If write caching is considered, care must be taken to ensure data is protected during the caching process. Techniques such as write-around caching and data redundancy can help address these concerns.
In this video join Storage Switzerland's Lead Analyst George Crump as he asks the question "what type of caching is best?". In it, Serge Shats, Engineering Fellow at Sandisk will discuss the different types of caching and the potential risks involved and how to reduce those risks.
