Resumen:
Caching is a traditional strategy for improving the performance of computing systems. Cache systems have
several settings that can change their operation and consequently their performance. This is the case, for
example, with the parameterization of item removal policies. When the scale of the cache system becomes very
large, experiments to test alternatives to these configurations become difficult. Considering this problem, we
developed a simulator that models a popular caching system, NGINX. We validated this simulator using traces
of a cache deployment for a high-scale web system. The validation of our simulator indicates that it presents
low error, around 1% of the requests.
