read_heavy_api benefits from read_through

Source: Workload·Target: Pattern

Summary

Read-heavy API workloads benefit from read-through caching which automatically populates the cache on miss, reducing database read pressure and eliminating the miss coalescing problem under high concurrency.

Evidence

·read_through_cache miss coalescing prevents thundering herd on the same key, applying when reads are highly repetitive (patterns/read_through_cache.yaml)
·read_heavy_api is high-read with repetitive cached-aggregation access and recommends cache_aside (workloads/read_heavy_api.yaml)

Evidence grounding

Grounded, 2 supporting items

Repetitive hot-key reads at high rps are the read-through cache case; built-in miss coalescing bounds stampede.
