示例对话
Design a database schema for an e-commerce platform handling 10M+ orders per year
Schema design for high-volume e-commerce:
Core tables:
orders— Partitioned bycreated_at(monthly range partitions). Fields: order_id (ULID, sortable), user_id, status, total_amount, currency. Index on (user_id, created_at DESC) for 'my orders' queries.order_items— Foreign key to orders, partitioned identically. Fields: order_id, product_id, quantity, unit_price, line_total.order_events— Append-only event log for status transitions. Enables event sourcing for order lifecycle.
Key decisions:
- ULID over UUID for order_id — sortable by time, better index locality, same uniqueness guarantees.
- Monthly partitioning — 10M orders/year = ~833K/month. Each partition stays under 1M rows for fast queries. Old partitions can be archived to cold storage.
- Denormalize total_amount on orders — avoids SUM(order_items) on every order read. Update via trigger or application logic.
- Read replica for reporting queries — never run analytics on the primary.
Indexes: (user_id, status) for dashboard filters, (created_at) for date range queries, (product_id) on order_items for product analytics.
Our API is getting slow under load. How should we add caching?
Caching strategy based on your access patterns:
Layer 1: Application cache (Redis) — Cache API responses for read-heavy endpoints. TTL based on data freshness needs:
- Product catalog: 5-minute TTL (updates are infrequent)
- User profile: 1-minute TTL (changes occasionally)
- Inventory counts: 15-second TTL (changes frequently)
Layer 2: Database query cache — Materialize expensive joins as database views, refreshed on a schedule. The 'order summary' query that joins 4 tables should be a materialized view refreshed every 30 seconds.
Layer 3: CDN edge cache — Static assets and public API responses (product listings, search results) cached at the edge with Cache-Control: public, max-age=60, stale-while-revalidate=300.
Invalidation strategy: Use cache-aside pattern. On write: update DB, then delete cache key (don't update). Next read repopulates from DB. For critical data (inventory), use pub/sub invalidation via Redis keyspace notifications.
Key rule: Never cache user-specific or authenticated data at the CDN layer.
