Server Side Cache

To enhance efficiency of the webpage and reduce the latency during page loads, I implemented server-side caching using Redis. This was able to address the delays caused by frequent requests to the public REST API for live stock data. With the cache, I was able to minimize the rate of outgoing requests.

  • Note: Caching was done server sided for the individual stocks, so if different users had the same investments, their data would be requested faster. However the same was done for the personal investment portfolio data, which should be stored locally (future change).
