Boost Your PostgreSQL Database Performance with Amazon ElastiCache for Redis - AWS OnlineTech Talks

Relational databases are the core of most applications today. But when it comes to latency, your relational database may hit some performance limitations imposed by disk-based storage. To boost performance of your relational database, the most effective strategy is implementing an in-memory cache to reduce pressure on your database, reduce latency, and increase throughput and scalability. Join us as we show you how to boost performance of your applications by adding an in-memory caching layer to your PostgreSQL database using Amazon ElastiCache for Redis alongside Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS).

Learning Objectives:
- Understand the performance and scaling limitations of relational databases.
- Learn how caching can decrease latency and increase throughput of your PostgreSQL database.
- Follow along with best practices for boosting performance of your PostgreSQL database using Amazon ElastiCache for Redis.

"Adding additional read replicas increases the total cost", what about ElastiCache's cost?

Thank you for your presentation! Don't most relational databases already have cache capability, such as library cache for SQL statements and database buffer/cache for data?
