Stampede is a high-performance cache stampede prevention library designed to mitigate excessive cache misses in distributed caching systems. It helps avoid the "thundering herd" problem, where multiple requests simultaneously trigger expensive computations when a cache entry expires. Stampede manages cache expiration intelligently, ensuring that only one request regenerates a missing cache entry while others wait for the updated value.
Features
- Implements lock-based and probabilistic techniques to prevent cache stampedes
- Works with distributed caching systems such as Redis and Memcached
- Provides intelligent cache expiration and prefetching strategies
- Reduces redundant computations during cache regeneration
- Supports configurable backoff mechanisms to handle high-traffic loads
- Open-source and optimized for high-performance web applications
