.SECTION DODB and memory constraint
In contrast with the previous section, some environments have a memory constraint.
For example, in case the database is larger than the available memory, it won't be possible to use a data cache\*[*].
Some environments may have very peculiar constraints, where caching data would cause problems or would be inefficient anyway\*[*].
.FOOTNOTE1
Keep in mind that for the moment "cached database" means "all data in memory".
It is perfectly reasonable to have a cached database with a policy of keeping just a certain amount of values in memory, in order to limit the memory required by selecting the relevant values to keep in cache (the most recently used, for example).
But for now, the cached version keeps everything.
See the "Future work" section.
Caching would be inefficient for databases where the distribution of requests is homogeneous between the different entries, for example.
If the requests are random, without a small portion of the data receiving most requests (such as a Pareto distribution), caching becomes mostly irrelevant.
