Exploring Optimizations for Proactive In-Memory Cache Architecture in Golang

Gopher China is the most authoritative and content‑rich Go developer conference in China, gathering thousands of Go developers and large‑scale Go‑using enterprises each year; over six years more than ten thousand technical participants have attended.

During the 2021 Gopher China conference, technical expert Yang Le Duo from NetSchool delivered a talk titled “Exploration of Proactive In‑Memory Cache Architecture Optimization in Golang,” sharing the team’s practical experience.

He described the practical problems encountered in NetSchool’s live‑streaming R&D business and how simple cache optimizations quickly reached their limits. After a series of optimization efforts, the team devised a proactive in‑memory cache solution that addressed real‑time data freshness, complex query handling, hot‑cold data swapping, and language‑level constraints, and they encapsulated the approach into a reusable framework to reduce cognitive load and boost development efficiency.

During the conference break, many attendees rated NetSchool’s booth as the 2021 best booth, engaged with the technical team, and expressed interest in their practices.

The article concludes with encouragement for NetSchool’s technical staff to continue diligent practice, deep learning, and to represent the team at future technology summits.
