Remote cache network latency slows application

How to detect:
Round-trip network calls to remote cache backends (Redis, Memcached) for every cache miss significantly slow down application response times
Recommended action:
Use local caching for frequently accessed, rarely changing data to avoid network overhead. Optimize connections to cache backends using connection pooling. Consider deploying cache servers closer to application servers. Implement multi-tier caching with local memory cache as L1 and remote cache as L2
