Lrucache is a powerful key/value store for Go.
You can use it almost the same way as an in-memory dictionary (map[string]interface{}) but there are many important differences in implementation.
map[string]interface{}
|
lrucache | |
|---|---|---|
| thread-safe | no | yes |
| maximum size | no | yes |
| OnMiss handler | no | yes |
- purges least recently used element when full
- elements can report their own size
- everything is cacheable (
interface{}) - is a front for your persistent storage (S3, disk, ...) by using OnMiss hooks
