Presentation: "Caching Hypermedia APIs"
Time:
Wednesday 16:00 - 16:50
Location:
Seacliff AB
Abstract: Cache invalidation in large systems can end up costing as much or more than not caching at all. But careful design of the shape and scope of your hypermedia resources can enable a system to rely on some of the natural behaviors that are built into the HTTP 1.1 protocol. Many real world examples will be used as we examine what works and what doesn't? How long can you cache things? How to make eTags cheaper? What can be cached and what can't? And why cache things at all?
