Hello ThingWorx community members!
First off, we greatly appreciate the feedback and enthusiasm for ThingWorx 10.0! Thank you!
With the release of 10.0, we’ve worked with customers to enhance their application performance using the caching feature. Based on this collaboration, our field services
team— @DeShengXu, @gregeva, and @ssauvage-2 —has developed the ThingWorx Cache Thing Guide v1.0.0, a comprehensive resource to help developers significantly improve query performance with in-memory caching.
This guide empowers you to optimize performance, reduce system load, and enhance user experience.
Why Use Cache Thing?
- Boost Performance: Caching feature with 10.0 improves repetitive data access performance by orders of magnitude (~700x) compared to accessing the data from the database every time.
- Reduce Costs: Minimize calls to external services by storing results, saving on resource usage.
- Improve Scalability: Handle high concurrency with ease and reduce the strain of database.
Dive into the pdf guide attached for step-by-step instructions, code samples, and key design consideration. Follow the DOs and DON’Ts to create efficient cache keys, manage memory, and optimize database operations.
We’d love to hear your feedback as you upgrade to 10.0 and explore the caching capability. Feel free to share your thoughts here!
Thank you!
Cheers,
Ayush Tiwari
Director Product Management
