    In-process caching may be implemented in a Node.js application through libraries, such as node-cache, memory-cache, api-cache, and others. There is a wide variety of distributed caching solutions, but the most popular ones are Redis and Memcached. They are both in-memory key-value stores and optimal for read-heavy workloads or compute-intensive workloads due to their use of memory rather than the slower on-disk storage mechanisms found in traditional database systems.
