I mean, kubernetes or microservices don’t care how the data reads are distributed, right? That problem is a database-level thing whereas k8s is infrastructure, you can run any kind of database with any kind of sharding you want on it. I feel like it might be more accurate to say something like “the value of caching is based on the idea of winners” for example
