Explanation

•Scatter Gather: When running within a transaction, Scatter Gather does not execute in parallel. This means that the second route is executed after the first one is processed, the third after the second one, etc. In case of error, all routes will be rolled back

To design a caching strategy that queries the database only when there is an update to the Employees table, follow these steps:

On Table Row Operation: Configure an On Table Row operation to monitor the Employees table for updates.

Invalidate Cache: When the On Table Row operation detects an update, trigger the invalidate cache operation to clear the cache.

Object Store Caching Strategy: Use an object-store-caching-strategy to store the cached responses.

Default Expiration Interval: Use the default expiration interval for the cache, which ensures that cached data is invalidated based on the detection of changes in the Employees table rather than a fixed time interval.

This strategy ensures that the cache is only invalidated when there are actual changes in the Employees table, thereby minimizing redundant transactions and optimizing database performance.
