  Beta Feature!

**Cache** provides an optional caching layer for LLMs.

Cache is useful for two reasons:

- It can save you money by reducing the number of API calls you make to the LLM
  provider if you're often requesting the same completion multiple times.
- It can speed up your application by reducing the number of API calls you make
  to the LLM provider.

Cache directly competes with Memory. See documentation for Pros and Cons.

**Class hierarchy:**

                you can pass an already-created 'astrapy.db.AstraDB' instance.
            namespace (Optional[str]): namespace (aka keyspace) where the
                collection is created. Defaults to the database's "default namespace".
            embedding (Embedding): Embedding provider for semantic
                encoding and search.
            metric: the function to use for evaluating similarity of text embeddings.
                Defaults to 'cosine' (alternatives: 'euclidean', 'dot_product')
            similarity_threshold (float, optional): the minimum similarity
                for accepting a (semantic-search) match.

        The default score threshold is tuned to the default metric.
        Tune it carefully yourself if switching to another distance metric.
