Wait, you mean I can't just dump my entire database into the in-memory cache and call it a day? Heroku is really cramping my style here.

C? Replicating the cache to disk? What is this, the Stone Age? Clearly, D is the way to go. Heroku will take care of my caching needs. I'm the king of cloud migration!

Option A seems tempting, but declaring a separate process type just for the cache? That's a bit overkill, don't you think?

B? Really? Sharing a single in-memory cache across all web dynos? That sounds like a recipe for disaster. I'm glad I caught that one!

Option D is the correct answer. Heroku's ephemeral file system means the application's in-memory cache might be cleared at any time. I'll make sure to design a more robust caching solution for Heroku.

Definitely, we need to ensure the application can handle the potential clearing of the cache.

But what if the cache gets cleared at any time? Wouldn't that affect the application's performance?
