KV with Tiered Cache and Magic like always getting key updates within 60s even if you set the ttl to much higher

wrong channel to talk about it though lol

Workers KV is faster than ever with a new architecture
With the new architecture powering Workers KV our service will become faster and more scalable than ever. We have significantly reduced cold read probability, and enabled KV to serve over a trillion requests a month
It was rolled back due to issues
Oh yeah, I remember reading this blog. Didn't know it was reverted.
So currently it's not live? Is the CF team still planning to fix the issues and re-release?

Hardening Workers KV
A deep dive into the recent incidents relating to Workers KV, and how we’re going to fix them.
Eventually. That blog post linked above goes over what went wrong and some other info about plans for the future
probably a while though, if I was to guess. There was issues with KV itself and they put out that blog post, and then the November outage and "Code Orange", focusing on reliability and such for a few months
Right gotcha. So lots of observability and internal improvements before focusing back on new features
I say a "few months" but not too sure about when code orange will be over, not too much public info
Yea, Vitali was the one of the engineers working on kv v2 as well and he left CF a bit ago, might hurt it as well
Yup understood. It was a pretty major outage during November, I can imagine a large portion of the team is focused on it.
That sucks. The changes definitely seemed really promising. Here's hoping they roll it out eventually 🤞
I've started to use KV as a cache for DB queries. It works quite well, so keen to see it improve.
yea it was really cool, setting cache ttl super high and avoiding cold hits entirely. I had one of my KV namespaces part of the testing and it was super smooth, plus at the time they were talking about making cached keys be even faster
hopefully one day
