Evolution of Ximalaya KV Storage and XCache Architecture
Ximalaya’s KV storage progressed from a simple Redis master‑slave setup to client‑side sharding, then adopted Codis clustering for elastic scaling, integrated Pika’s disk‑based store with cold‑hot separation, introduced KV‑blob separation, fast‑slow command pools, second‑level expansion, ehash fields, large‑key circuit breaking, multi‑active data‑center replication, and now targets cloud‑native deployment, advanced features, and AI‑driven operations.
