When good enough is not good enough - a short story about performance tuning for Valkey
Time: Thursday 14th May 13:20-13:50
Room: Te Aro
Track: Drupal Development
Redis/Valkey can really improve your site's responsiveness by holding recently used cache object in-memory. Join Max as he recounts an adventure in squeezing the best performance possible out of this technology for a large Drupal platform.
We'll talk through the combination of factors which led to the need to make improvements - particularly the distributed nature of containerised deployments, the failed attempts, and finally the key improvement which you can also use to wring that last drop of performance out of your in-memory cache.
