🛠️ Core Technologies

RESP (Redis Serialization Protocol)

What: Binary protocol for Redis compatibility
Why: Enables seamless integration with existing Redis clients and tools
Features: Full command set support, pipelining, pub/sub ready
Performance: Zero-copy parsing, minimal overhead

GOSSIP Protocol

What: Decentralized node discovery and health monitoring
Why: Eliminates single points of failure in cluster coordination
Features: Automatic node detection, failure detection, metadata propagation
Scalability: O(log n) message complexity, handles thousands of nodes

RAFT Consensus

What: Distributed consensus algorithm for cluster coordination
Why: Ensures data consistency and handles leader election
Features: Strong consistency guarantees, partition tolerance, log replication
Reliability: Proven algorithm used by etcd, Consul, and other systems

Hash Ring (Consistent Hashing)

What: Distributed data placement using consistent hashing
Why: Minimizes data movement during cluster changes
Features: Virtual nodes for load balancing, configurable replication
Efficiency: O(log n) lookup time, minimal rehashing on topology changes

AOF + WAL Persistence

AOF (Append-Only File): Sequential write logging for durability
WAL (Write-Ahead Logging): Transaction-safe write ordering
Hybrid Approach: Combines speed of WAL with simplicity of AOF
Recovery: Fast startup with complete data restoration

Cuckoo Filters

What: Space-efficient probabilistic data structure
Why: Better than Bloom filters - supports deletions and has better locality
Features: Configurable false positive rates, O(1) operations
Use Cases: Membership testing, cache admission policies, duplicate detection

💾 Persistence & Recovery Deep Dive

Dual Persistence Architecture

HyperCache implements a sophisticated dual-persistence system combining the best of both AOF and WAL approaches:

AOF (Append-Only File)

# Ultra-fast sequential writes
Write Latency: 2.7µs average
Throughput: 370K+ operations/sec
File Format: Human-readable command log
Recovery: Sequential replay of operations

WAL (Write-Ahead Logging)

# Transaction-safe write ordering
Consistency: ACID compliance
Durability: Configurable fsync policies
Crash Recovery: Automatic rollback/forward
Performance: Batched writes, zero-copy I/O

Recovery Scenarios

Fast Startup Recovery

# Measured Performance (Production Test)
✅ Data Set: 10 entries
✅ Recovery Time: 160µs
✅ Success Rate: 100% (5/5 tests)
✅ Memory Overhead: <1MB

Point-in-Time Recovery

# Snapshot-based recovery
✅ Snapshot Creation: 3.7ms for 7 entries  
✅ File Size: 555B snapshot + 573B AOF
✅ Recovery Strategy: Snapshot + AOF replay
✅ Data Integrity: Checksum verification

Configurable Persistence Policies

Per-Store Persistence Settings

stores:
  critical_data:
    persistence:
      mode: "aof+snapshot"        # Full durability
      fsync: "always"             # Immediate disk sync
      snapshot_interval: "60s"    # Frequent snapshots
      
  session_cache:
    persistence:
      mode: "aof_only"           # Write-ahead logging
      fsync: "periodic"          # Batched sync (1s)
      compression: true          # Compress log files
      
  temporary_cache:
    persistence:
      mode: "disabled"           # In-memory only
      # No disk I/O overhead for temporary data

Durability vs Performance Tuning

# High Durability (Financial/Critical Data)
fsync: "always"              # Every write synced
batch_size: 1                # Individual operations
compression: false           # No CPU overhead

# Balanced (General Purpose)  
fsync: "periodic"            # 1-second sync intervals
batch_size: 100              # Batch writes
compression: true            # Space efficiency

# High Performance (Analytics/Temporary)
fsync: "never"               # OS manages sync
batch_size: 1000             # Large batches
compression: false           # CPU for throughput

Recovery Guarantees

Crash Recovery

Zero Data Loss: With fsync: always configuration
Automatic Recovery: Self-healing on restart
Integrity Checks: Checksums on all persisted data
Partial Recovery: Recovers valid data even from corrupted files

Network Partition Recovery

Consensus-Based: RAFT ensures consistency across partitions
Split-Brain Protection: Majority quorum prevents conflicts
Automatic Reconciliation: Rejoining nodes sync automatically
Data Validation: Cross-node checksum verification

Operational Commands

# Manual snapshot creation
curl -X POST http://localhost:9080/api/admin/snapshot

# Force AOF rewrite (compact logs)
curl -X POST http://localhost:9080/api/admin/aof-rewrite

# Check persistence status
curl http://localhost:9080/api/admin/persistence-stats

# Backup current state
