Abstract
In an example embodiment, a solution is provided that aggregates records as they are submitted to a third party (on the write path) rather than performing a real-time aggregation when a request is processed that needs the aggregation (read path). More particularly, in an example embodiment, a caching layer is introduced that avoids having to read all usage events to compute an aggregation when a request is received for aggregated data. The caching layer maintains values for various metrics that require aggregation.
