asmhatre a9867c0423 Add caching: the Spring cache abstraction, keys, eviction timing and the self-invocation trap
A Spring Boot 4.1.1 module whose test suite is the evidence for the article: 20 tests
producing 22 transcripts under docs/output/, plus 12 documentation chapters.

Findings the build pins:
- @EnableCaching has no exposeProxy attribute; the widely-copied
  @EnableCaching(exposeProxy = true) does not compile.
- Two methods sharing a cache name and an argument type share a key space, and one
  silently serves the other's answers.
- The documented cache-provider detection order does not match CacheType's enum
  order in 4.1.1: COUCHBASE before INFINISPAN, and CACHE2K before CAFFEINE.
- beforeInvocation = true is NOT deferred by TransactionAwareCacheManagerProxy on
  7.0.9 - doEvict picks evictIfPresent, which the decorator does not intercept.
- Four of five invalid declarations start a clean context and throw at the first call.
- Caffeine on the classpath silently displaces the simple provider.

# spring-boot-demo
Companion code for the Spring Boot articles on **[ankurm.com](https://ankurm.com)**.
One directory per article. Each is a self-contained Maven project with its own `README.md`,
numbered documentation chapters under `docs/`, and captured real output under `docs/output/`
that a single script regenerates. Every figure quoted in an article came out of one of those
files.
| Directory | Article | What it demonstrates |
|---|---|---|
| [`actuator-in-production/`](actuator-in-production) | [Spring Boot Actuator in Production](https://ankurm.com/spring-boot-actuator-production-endpoints-security-health-indicators/) | endpoint exposure defaults, securing Actuator, custom health indicators and how they hang |
| [`spring-boot-startup-time/`](spring-boot-startup-time) | [Why Your Spring Boot App Takes 8 Seconds to Start](spring-boot-startup-time/post/post.md) | `BufferingApplicationStartup`, JFR startup events, self time vs total time, the classpath-scan tax, the JDK 25 AOT cache |
| [`configuration-properties/`](configuration-properties) | [@ConfigurationProperties vs @Value in Spring Boot 4](https://ankurm.com/) | relaxed binding measured three ways, record constructor binding, validation, IDE metadata generation |
| [`profiles-and-config/`](profiles-and-config) | [Spring Boot Profiles Done Right](https://ankurm.com/) | the precedence stack made visible, config trees and ConfigMaps, why a profile file loses to an environment variable |
| [`spring-aop/`](spring-aop) | [Spring AOP Explained](https://ankurm.com/) | every pointcut designator with real matches, JDK vs CGLIB proxies, six aspects that do not fire |
| [`docker-images/`](docker-images) | [Dockerizing Spring Boot 4: Layered Jars, Buildpacks, Distroless and Image Size Benchmarks](https://ankurm.com/dockerizing-spring-boot-4-layered-jars-buildpacks-distroless/) | one service packaged nine ways and measured: size on disk and pushed, rebuild delta, startup, PID 1 and signals, jlink, the JDK 25 AOT cache |
| [`kubernetes-deployment/`](kubernetes-deployment) | [Deploying Spring Boot 4 on Kubernetes](https://ankurm.com/spring-boot-4-kubernetes-probes-graceful-shutdown-cpu-limits-hpa/) | probe groups under a dependency outage, graceful shutdown under load four ways, JVM ergonomics per pod shape, CPU limits throttling GC, HPA on a Micrometer metric |
| [`problem-details/`](problem-details) | [Global Exception Handling with ProblemDetail (RFC 9457) in Spring Boot 4](https://ankurm.com/spring-boot-4-problemdetail-rfc-9457-global-exception-handling/) | thirteen failures under five handling setups, validation errors, i18n, content negotiation, errors outside MVC, silent 500s, decoding on the client |
| [`resilience/`](resilience) | [Spring Framework 7's Built-in Resilience: @Retryable, @ConcurrencyLimit, and What's Left for Resilience4j](https://ankurm.com/spring-framework-7-retryable-concurrencylimit-resilience4j/) | `@Retryable` and `@ConcurrencyLimit` counted invocation by invocation, retries inside transactions, where Resilience4j still earns its place, migrating from Spring Retry |
| [`caching/`](caching) | [The Spring Cache Abstraction: @Cacheable, @CacheEvict, Key Generators and the Self-Invocation Trap](https://ankurm.com/spring-cache-abstraction-cacheable-cacheevict-self-invocation-trap/) | the self-invocation trap measured four ways, the key collision `SimpleKeyGenerator` makes easy, eviction timing under a thrown exception, a rollback the cache keeps, and where this sits next to Hibernate's L2 cache |
Articles whose text is kept here rather than only on the blog have it under
`<directory>/post/``post.md` for the body and `meta.md` for the title, excerpt and
categories.
## Running any of them
Each project needs a JDK 25 and Maven 3.9. `docker-images` also needs Docker, and
`kubernetes-deployment` Docker plus a Kubernetes cluster; their READMEs list the rest:
```bash
cd <directory>
export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/jdk-25
mvn -DskipTests package
./scripts/run-all.sh # regenerate every transcript under docs/output/
```
