HTML5 Web Storage is a way for web pages to store named key/value pairs locally, within the client web browser. Like cookies, this data persists even after you navigate away from the web site, close your browser tab, exit your browser, or what have you. Unlike cookies, this data is never transmitted to the remote web server (unless you go out of your way to send it manually). Unlike all previous attempts at providing persistent local storage, it is implemented natively in web browsers.

Less and faster – Cache tips for WordPress developersSeravo
Otto Kekäläinen, the code-loving CEO of Seravo held a webinar on May 12, 2020, that focused on the cache: what should a WordPress developer know and which are the best practices to follow?
Zend_Cache: how to improve the performance of PHP applicationsEnrico Zimuel
In this talk i showed some caching techniques in PHP using the Zend_Cache class of hte Zend Framework.
I presented the functions and the flexibility of the Zend_Cache with the use of the backends: File, APC, Memcached, Zend Server Community Edition.
Today's high-traffic web sites must implement performance-boosting measures that reduce data processing and reduce load on the database, while increasing the speed of content delivery. One such method is the use of a cache to temporarily store whole pages, database recordsets, large objects, and sessions. While many caching mechanisms exist, memcached provides one of the fastest and easiest-to-use caching servers. Coupling memcached with the alternative PHP cache (APC) can greatly improve performance by reducing data processing time. In this talk, Ben Ramsey covers memcached and the pecl/memcached and pecl/apc extensions for PHP, exploring caching strategies, a variety of configuration options to fine-tune your caching solution, and discusses when it may be appropriate to use memcached vs. APC to cache objects or data.
Caching is a technique to save frequently used data into into temporary location. Improves application performance. Reduce a lot of server resources at peak times.
Whether you're looking to make your web app run faster or scale better, one great way to achieve both is to simply do less work. How? By using caches, the data hidey-holes which generations of engineers have thoughtfully left at key junctures in computing infrastructure from your CPU to the backbone of the internet. Requests into web applications, which span great distances and often involve expensive frontend and backend lifting are great candidates for caching of all types. We'll discuss the benefits and tradeoffs of caching at different layers of the stack and how to find low-hanging cachable fruit, with a particular focus on server-side improvements

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

2. Presentation outline
● What cache is, what to cache
● Caching options in PHP and MySQL
o Memcached, Alternative PHP Cache (APC)
o MySQL Query Cache
● Page level a Object Cache
● Is WordPress cache-ready?
o Transients API
o WP_Object_Cache a wp_cache funkce
o oEmbed cache
3. What is a cache and what to cache?
● transparently stored data so that future requests for that
data can be served faster
● You can cache almost everything
o whole pages, objects
o external API requests, resource demanding
operations ...
● … and even more
o MySQL Query Cache
o OpCode
4. MySQL Query Cache
● only identical and deterministic SELECT
requests
● inter session persistent
● cache flushing after the change of relevant
data
● non-distributed
5. Cache engines
● Memcached
o distributed (server accessible via telnet)
o key-value pairs saved in a memory
o PECL extension for PHP (memcached / memcache)
● Alternative PHP Cache (APC)
o Opcode and user cache (PHP <= 5.4), APCu (PHP 5.5)
o non-distributed
● Flat file
o eg. mod_rewrite (WP Super Cache), CDN
6. Page Level vs. Object Cache
● Page level cache (e.g. WP Super Cache)
o saves only whole pages
o every single page has to be generated on it’s own
with all database requests, API call etc..
o usually is not available for non logged in users
● Object cache (APC, Memcached, W3TC)
o reusable for a generation of multiple pages
o works also for logged in users
o has affect even on WordPress administration
7. Page Level Cache
● HTML files saved on hard drive
o loading via PHP or mod_rewrite (WP Super Cache)
● memcached (Batcache)
o can be used even without PHP (NginX, Apache ...)
● CDN
o cloudflare (W3TC)
o anything else (WP Super Cache)
10. Object Cache
● reusable objects
o either in terms of a single requests
o or, and with better performance, in multiple requests
● object is created via one or multiple
SELECTs
o is an output from multiple functions, methods ...
● For example:
o WP_User (capabilities, user_meta)
o WP_Post ...
11. Is WordPress cache-ready? It is!
● Transients API
o set_transient, get_transient, delete_transient
o set_site_transient, get_site_transient …
● WP_Object_Cache and wp_cache functions
o wp-includes/cache.php
wp_cache_add, wp_cache_set,
wp_cache_replace
wp_cache_get
wp_cache_delete, wp_cache_flush
12. Transients API
● temporary saving of cached data
● uses wp_options table by default
o add_option with param autoload = “no”
if no expiration is set, then autoload = “yes”
o adds two entries to the database
transient value
maximal expiration time (vs. guaranted time)
● it’s guaranted by default, but saving into database can be
overriden by memcache server, for instance
13. ● core implementation of this class uses global
variable for saving data
o thus, from nature, is cached only per requests
● has it’s meaning for repeated database
requests
o you can call get_post_meta multiple time for one
request, but you reach database once only
WP_Object_Cache
14. Where is WP_Object_Cache used
● get_metadata (post, user, comment ...)
● get_option (autoload options)
● get_post, get_user, get_comment, get_term
● transients
● ...
15. wp_cache functions
● wp_cache_set($key, $data, $group, $expire)
o no expiration by default ($expire = 0)
● wp_cache_get( $key, $group )
o group allows to use same keys across multiple
groups
16. WP_Object_Cache dropins
● dropins
o wp-content/advanced-cache.php
o wp-content/object-cache.php
● object-cache.php
o prevents loading of wp-includes/wp_cache.php
o redefines WP_Object_Cache and wp_cache
functions
o uses any of external caching engines
memcache, APC, filesystem ...
18. WordPress Cache Plugins
● WP Super Cache http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-
cache/
o page level cache using mod_rewrite
● W3 Total Cache http://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/
o multiple object-cache engines
● Batcache http://wordpress.org/plugins/batcache/
● object-cache.php dropins
http://wordpress.org/plugins/memcached/
http://wordpress.org/plugins/apc/
19. Understanding Cache in WP - Summary
● Memcached, APC, MySQL Query Cache
● Page level vs. Object Cache
o go for a mix of page level and object
cache
● Transients API
● WP_Object_Cache a wp_cache funkce
o dropins: object-cache.php, advanced-cache.php
● oEmbed cache using post_meta table
