Nebulex provides support for transparently adding caching into an existing Elixir application. Similar to Ecto, the caching abstraction allows consistent use of various caching solutions with minimal impact on the code. Nebulex cache abstraction shields developers from directly dealing with the underlying caching implementations, such as Redis, Memcached, or even other Elixir cache implementations like Cachex. Additionally, it provides totally out-of-box features such as cache usage patterns, declarative annotation-based caching, and distributed cache topologies, among others. For intensive workloads, you may want to use :shards as the backend for the local adapter and having partitioned tables. In such a case, you have to add :shards to the dependency list. For enabling the usage of declarative annotation-based caching via decorators, you have to add :decorator to the dependency list.
Features
- Caches are wrappers around the in-memory data store
- Via the cache, we can put, get, update, delete and query existing entries
- A cache needs an adapter to communicate to the in-memory data store
- Decorators provide an elegant way of annotating functions to be cached or evicted
- It is possible the implementation of cache usage patterns like Read-through, Write-through, Cache-as-SoR, etc.
- Nebulex.Cache is the wrapper around the Cache
