We get that in rails. You just say something like
``SomeType.get_cache 81754'' to get a SomeType from the cache. If
it's not in the cache, it'll get it from the DB and put it in the
cache and then return the value.
Similarly, if you add this to your model:
after_save :reset_cache
It will automatically freshen the cache after you save a record.
If it complicates the API, you're probably doing it wrong.
Of course, you can do more complicated stuff, but it's only
incrementally more complicated code.
