Before we start

Each question below holds up the work. The most important one is first. The answer marked as recommended is the agent's own view: nothing is chosen for you, and you can say that you do not know.

Who reads the reports when the cache is cold? Only staff, who can wait a few seconds Staff and customers, so a slow read matters Automated jobs, which never wait on a read

May the first release show a report that is a minute old? Yes, a report a minute old is fine No, every report must be current Only for reports with no live totals
