You are developing a C# backend application that retrieves product inventory data. You must implement the Cache-Aside data pattern to cache inventory status using an Azure Cache for Redis instance and the StackExchange.Redis SDK. The cache connection must be initialized lazily and thread-safely.
Order the steps to implement the sequence of operations for retrieving product inventory data on a request.
- 1Initialize the ConnectionMultiplexer using a Lazy<ConnectionMultiplexer> thread-safe singleton pattern.
- 2Get the database instance using GetDatabase() and execute StringGetAsync with the product inventory key.
- 3Check if the retrieved Redis value is not null; if present, deserialize the value and return it to the caller.
- 4If the Redis value is null, query the backend database to retrieve the product inventory record.
- 5Serialize the database record to JSON and write it to Redis asynchronously using StringSetAsync with a designated expiration time.
- 6Return the product inventory data retrieved from the database to the caller.
Cevap
The correct sequence starts with initializing the ConnectionMultiplexer using a Lazy thread-safe singleton, querying the cache via StringGetAsync, returning the data immediately if a cache hit occurs, retrieving data from the backend database on a cache miss, writing the data back to the cache asynchronously using StringSetAsync with an expiration time, and finally returning the database-retrieved data to the caller.
The correct order follows the standard implementation of the Cache-Aside data pattern. First, the connection must be established thread-safely (Lazy ConnectionMultiplexer). Next, the application attempts to read from the cache. If the key exists, the cached value is deserialized and returned immediately. If a cache miss occurs, the application queries the persistent SQL database, writes the result to the cache with an expiration time, and returns the data.

Anahtar Kavram
The Cache-Aside pattern caches data on-demand from a data store, improving performance and database scalability while maintaining consistency via TTL.
