Cache

Talos can cache verification results to reduce database load and improve latency.

Backends

Backend	Edition	Shared	Description
noop	OSS	N/A	No caching (default)
Memory	Commercial	No	Per-process LRU cache
Redis	Commercial	Yes	Shared cache across instances

Configuration

cache:
  type: "memory" # "noop", "memory", or "redis"
  ttl: "5m" # Cache entry lifetime

Consistency

Caching introduces eventual consistency. A revoked key may continue to pass verification until the cache entry expires (default: 5 minutes).

Bypass cache: Use Cache-Control: no-cache on verification requests to bypass the cache for individual requests when immediate consistency is required.
