In the Spring Cache series so far ( Part1 , Part2 , Part3 , Part4 ), we have seen examples where the data is getting added to the cache through the use of @Cacheable and @CachePut . But, what about removing data from cache? Consider a call to delete the record from Service or DB, in which case, we would also want to delete that record from the cache.

Caching is an extremely important aspect of applications that care about lower latencies. There are a multitude of rules one has to adhere to while setting up a cache, in order to optimize the performance; but not overdo it. We will not get into those details in this post. Our focus would be on what Spring provides to enable caching in your applications.
