What is cache data and what is the updating process?
Livn keeps a cache (which is a local data store) of tour availability and basic price for the next 12 months. This is so we do not need to make a request of our connector/supplier APIs for every simple query about tour availability, most of which don’t lead to a confirmed tour booking.
We have a phased schedule for updating this cache depending how close the tour date is to try to balance the need for up to date data vs the load on our systems and those of our connector APIs best we can. The default setup is as follows:
- tour date next 3 days = every 12hrs
- tour date next 7 days = once daily
- tour date next 15 days = once every 2 days
- tour date next 30 days = once every 3 days
- tour date next 60 days = once every 4 days
- tour date next 120 days = once every 5 days
- tour date next 200 days = once every 7 days
- tour date next 366 days = once every 14 days
