##### Disadvantage(s): refresh-ahead
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
* Not accurately predicting which items are likely to be needed in the future can result in reduced performance than without refresh-ahead.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Disadvantage(s): cache
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
* Need to maintain consistency between caches and the source of truth such as the database through [cache invalidation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_algorithms).
 | 
			
		||||
* Need to make application changes such as adding Redis or memcached.
 | 
			
		||||
* Cache invalidation is a difficult problem, there is additional complexity associated with when to update the cache.
