Chinmay Soman commented on SAMZA-424:
-------------------------------------
[~closeuris] to elaborate the answer to your question:
bq. 1) where does the user input values to the cache layer in a real use case?
What I indicated above is a 'read-only Cache' backed by a remote DB. We
discussed the use case of having a read-write cache but that opened up a can of
worms with respect to changelog and recovery in addition to multi-writer race
condition.

> There are cases when the user code needs access to a 'cache' which can be
> used to store custom data. This cache is different from the KeyValue store in
> the following ways:
> * At the very least Needs to support LRU (Least Recently Used) and TTL (Time
> To Live) eviction strategies
> * May not support all() and range() operations (since this wreaks havoc with
> the eviction operation)
> * Needs to exist at a per task or a per container level.
