I love the concept. Not needing to have extra code and logic for a caching layer seems very nice. In my experience, I haven't ever been in a situation where I needed super heavy caching, but this seems like it gives it to you "for free". Interested to see if we see more of ReadySet in the future.

I signed up for the waitlist! I noticed it asked about AWS, Azure, and GCP but we use Heroku. Hopefully, that won't put me too low on the list.

Do you have a sense for when people can try it? Most of our app is reads and we're using Rails + Redis and it's fine and sometimes a pain. Would love to try it.

Are you looking into spreading the dataflow even more down to the clients ? Think realtime subscription for complex queries over structured data.

Yes! We've thought about this in depth and have some ideas but I'd love to chat more. Shoot me an email: greg@readyset.io

> Traditional databases would compute the results of this query from scratch every time it was issued. Is this really the case that queries can't be cached on traditional databases?

It doesn't appear to be the case: https://docs.oracle.com/database/121/TGDBA/tune_result_cache...

Hey, PM @ ReadySet here. Shoot an email to greg@readyset.io and we can see what we can do :)

ReadySet PM here - depends on if there are writes to the table or not!

For example, MySQL deprecated their query cache, but previously it would only cache until there were any writes to the tables that the queries were referencing https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/query-cache-configur...
