What is caching and what is the importance of caching in microservices applications?
Caching is the simplest way to increase the application's throughput. The principle is very easy. Once the data is read from the data storage, it is kept as close as possible to the processing server. In future requests, the data is served directly from the data storage or cache. The essence of caching is to minimize the amount of work that a server has to do. HTTP has a built-in cache mechanism embedded in the protocol itself. This is the reason it scales so well.
