Cachex is a high-performance in-memory caching library for Elixir, offering a robust feature set including expirations, size limits, hooks, fallbacks, async operations, and clustering capabilities. The version 4.x release brought optimized janitor routines, modular streaming and querying, runtime cache warming, size pruning (LRW/LRU), distributed routing mechanisms, and a major documentation overhaul. It integrates seamlessly with Elixir applications via mix dependencies, supports advanced transactional use cases, and includes utilities for distributed node clusters.

- Pre‑/post‑execution hooks, asynchronous writes, cache warming
