How does the caching work?

Hello,

I just read the new beta notes (version 64) and was asking my self how does the caching work? And what exactly gets cached? And where :dizzy:

Thanks
Timo :)

Hey Timo,

We use caching on the backend to reduce the number of calls that go directly to the database for expensive queries (This is a pretty standard practice). Instead of going direct to the database, we first check a redis-based in-memory data store. These caches are not publicly available, and are temporary; they expire after a certain amount of time. Cache data remains encrypted (we can't decrypt your data anyway), and never leaves the private network.

Hope this helps.
