What I do
- Design key-value schemas and data models
- Implement caching strategies and policies
- Optimize for low-latency access patterns
- Work with distributed hash tables
- Handle data partitioning and replication
When to use me
When building high-performance applications requiring fast lookups, caching layers, session stores, or distributed caching systems.
Key Concepts
Data Modeling
- Key design patterns (natural keys, composite keys)
- Value serialization (JSON, protobuf, msgpack)
- Time-to-live (TTL) and expiration
- Namespace and prefix patterns
Caching Strategies
- Cache-aside (lazy loading)
- Write-through caching
- Write-back caching
- Cache invalidation patterns
