* The Caching pattern describes how to avoid expensive re-acquisition of resources by not releasing
* the resources immediately after their use. The resources retain their identity, are kept in some
* fast-access storage, and are re-used to avoid having to acquire them again. There are three main
* caching strategies/techniques in this pattern; each with their own pros and cons. They are:
* fast-access storage, and are re-used to avoid having to acquire them again. There are four main
* caching strategies/techniques in this pattern; each with their own pros and cons. They are;
* <code>write-through</code> which writes data to the cache and DB in a single transaction,
* <code>write-around</code> which writes data immediately into the DB instead of the cache, and
* <code>write-around</code> which writes data immediately into the DB instead of the cache,
* <code>write-behind</code> which writes data into the cache initially whilst the data is only
* written into the DB when the cache is full. The <code>read-through</code> strategy is also
* included in the mentioned three strategies -- returns data from the cache to the caller <b>if</b>
* it exists <b>else</b> queries from DB and stores it into the cache for future use. These
* strategies determine when the data in the cache should be written back to the backing store (i.e.
* Database) and help keep both data sources synchronized/up-to-date. This pattern can improve
* performance and also helps to maintain consistency between data held in the cache and the data in
