CacheDB by houdata.

A transparent database cache for critical workloads.

CacheDB sits between your application and database, accelerating repeated reads while keeping invalidation controlled and visible.

Transparent path
Keep existing application logic.
Targeted invalidation
Refresh only what changes.
Operator visibility
Inspect the cache in real time.

Console preview. Video coming soon.

Works with critical data systems

Measurable improvement

Make repeated reads faster. Keep data changes controlled.

CacheDB is designed for teams that need a credible performance path without a rewrite of the systems they already trust.

Peak throughputUp to 9k

Requests per second

Observed in measured CacheDB workloads.

Database offloadUp to 80%

Fewer database requests

For cacheable, read-heavy traffic with an appropriate policy.

AI-powered scriptingRules engine + IA Assistant

Policy built from traffic

Analyze proxy signals and propose query-specific cache actions for review.

SQL traffic visibilityFull context

See the workload

Inspect query patterns, QPS, cache outcomes, latency and invalidations.

Results depend on workload, database, cacheability, policy, and infrastructure. Request the evaluation methodology.

Architecture

One intelligent layer between systems.

CacheDB answers repeated reads from Redis when safe, routes misses to the source of truth, and makes the resulting behavior observable.

Explore the technical architecture
Application sends requests to the CacheDB proxy, which serves a Redis cache fast path or reads from the database source of truth.

Traffic-aware cache policy

Turn proxy traffic into a better Rhai policy.

CacheDB combines programmable hooks with an AI assistant that studies the operational context already visible at the proxy.

01

Inspect the traffic

Analyze cache metrics, query patterns, invalidation relationships and runtime signals to find inefficient behavior.

02

Propose the change

Generate a focused Rhai candidate for TTLs, cache eligibility, or selective invalidation instead of a generic recommendation.

03

Review before rollout

Validate candidates with the production engine without deploying them. Operators remain responsible for review and activation.

Enterprise-ready operations

Built for the controls around a critical database path.

CacheDB makes performance policy an operational system: observable, attributable, integrated with identity, and designed for resilient deployments.

Durable alerts

Evaluate and retain operational alerts, then deliver them through configured SMTP or webhook channels.

Auditable change

Record protected actions and policy deployments in an append-only audit history with export support.

High availability

Run multiple proxy instances and use Redis Sentinel so failover is discovered without proxy restarts.

Single sign-on

Use standards-based OIDC, group-to-role mappings, and a controlled emergency-access path for the console.

Evidence for operators

Understand the query. Review the policy.

CacheDB exposes the operational context needed to review cache outcomes and tune explicit policy with confidence.

A controlled evaluation

Observe. Decide. Act. Measure.

Start with the workload you already operate. Validate the result with evidence before broadening the deployment.

  1. 01

    Observe

    Identify repeated reads, load patterns and current constraints.

  2. 02

    Decide

    Model cache policy, TTLs and invalidation boundaries.

  3. 03

    Act

    Introduce CacheDB into a controlled path without rewriting application logic.

  4. 04

    Measure

    Compare latency, hit ratio and database load against the baseline.
