# Semantic Caching - Implementation Summary

## ✅ What Was Implemented

### 1. **Unified Cache Service** (`common/cache.py`)
Đã mở rộng `RedisClient` class để bao gồm:

#### **Layer 1: LLM Response Cache**
- Semantic similarity search using cosine similarity
- Threshold: 0.95 (configurable)
- TTL: 1 hour (configurable)
- Key format: `semantic_cache:{user_id}:{query_hash}`

#### **Layer 2: Embedding Cache**
- Cache embeddings to avoid duplicate OpenAI calls
- Exact match using MD5 hash
- TTL: 24 hours
- Key format: `embedding_cache:{text_hash}`

#### **Layer 3: Analytics & Monitoring**
- Track cache hits/misses
- Calculate cost savings
- Performance metrics (time saved)

### 2. **Controller Integration** (`agent/controller.py`)
```python
# Flow:
1. Check semantic cache → If hit, return in 50-100ms
2. If miss → Call LLM (2-3s)
3. Cache response in background
```

### 3. **Cache Analytics API** (`api/cache_analytics_route.py`)
- `GET /cache/stats` - View cache performance
- `DELETE /cache/user/{user_id}` - Clear user cache
- `POST /cache/stats/reset` - Reset statistics

### 4. **Documentation** (`docs/SEMANTIC_CACHE.md`)
- Architecture diagrams
- Configuration guide
- Monitoring instructions
- Best practices
- Troubleshooting

## 📊 Expected Performance

| Metric | Before | After | Improvement |
|--------|--------|-------|-------------|
| **Response Time (cache hit)** | 2-3s | 50-100ms | **15-20X faster** |
| **Response Time (cache miss)** | 2-3s | 2-3s | Same |
| **Cost per query (60% hit rate)** | $0.001 | $0.0004 | **60% reduction** |
| **Monthly cost (30K queries)** | $30 | $12 | **$18 saved** |

## 🎯 How to Use

### Basic Usage (Already Integrated)

Semantic caching is **automatically enabled** in `chat_controller`. No code changes needed!

```python
# User query 1: "áo sơ mi nam" → CACHE MISS → Call LLM (2s)
# User query 2: "áo sơ mi cho nam giới" → CACHE HIT → Return cached (80ms)
```

### Monitor Cache Performance

```bash
# Get statistics
curl http://localhost:5000/cache/stats

# Response:
{
    "llm_cache": {
        "hits": 90,
        "misses": 60,
        "hit_rate_percent": 60.0,
        "cost_saved_usd": 0.09
    },
    "embedding_cache": {
        "hits": 120,
        "misses": 30,
        "hit_rate_percent": 80.0
    }
}
```

### Clear Cache (if needed)

```bash
# Clear specific user cache
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:5000/cache/user/user123
```

## ⚙️ Configuration

### Adjust Similarity Threshold

In `agent/controller.py`:

```python
cached_result = await get_cached_llm_response(
    query=query,
    user_id=user_id,
    similarity_threshold=0.92,  # Lower = more lenient (more cache hits)
)
```

### Adjust TTL

In `agent/controller.py`:

```python
await set_cached_llm_response(
    query=query,
    user_id=user_id,
    response=response,
    ttl=7200,  # 2 hours instead of 1
)
```

### Global Settings

In `common/cache.py`:

```python
DEFAULT_SIMILARITY_THRESHOLD = 0.95  # Change default threshold
DEFAULT_LLM_CACHE_TTL = 3600         # Change default TTL
EMBEDDING_CACHE_TTL = 86400          # Change embedding cache TTL
```

## 🚀 Next Steps

### 1. Install Dependencies

```bash
cd d:\cnf\chatbot_canifa\backend
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

### 2. Verify Redis Connection

```bash
# Check .env file has:
REDIS_HOST=172.16.2.192
REDIS_PORT=6379
REDIS_DB=2
```

### 3. Test the Implementation

```bash
# Start server
python run.py

# Test cache miss (first query)
curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "áo sơ mi nam", "user_id": "test123"}'

# Test cache hit (similar query)
curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "áo sơ mi cho nam giới", "user_id": "test123"}'

# Check stats
curl http://localhost:5000/cache/stats
```

### 4. Monitor in Production

```bash
# View logs for cache hits/misses
tail -f logs/app.log | grep "CACHE"

# Output:
✅ LLM CACHE HIT | Similarity: 0.97 | Time: 85ms | User: user123
❌ LLM CACHE MISS | Best similarity: 0.82 | Time: 120ms | User: user456
```

## 🔧 Troubleshooting

### Issue: "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'redis'"

**Solution:**
```bash
pip install redis[hiredis]==5.2.1
```

### Issue: "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'numpy'"

**Solution:**
```bash
pip install numpy==2.4.0
```

### Issue: Redis connection failed

**Check:**
1. Redis server is running: `redis-cli -h 172.16.2.192 -p 6379 ping`
2. Network connectivity to Redis server
3. Credentials in `.env` are correct

### Issue: Low cache hit rate

**Solutions:**
1. Lower similarity threshold (0.92 instead of 0.95)
2. Increase TTL (2 hours instead of 1)
3. Check if queries are too diverse
