Here is a new Technical Architect assessment, take two, and its problem summary: Implement a high-performance caching layer for HealthTech's EHR system by completing a thread-safe LRU cache in Java that holds up to 1000 patient records with LRU eviction, tracks hits/misses/evictions/latency, handles concurrency (using the provided BloomFilter and SQLite DB with 10k records), and passes included tests. Also build an Angular 17 cache-monitor dashboard that auto-refreshes metrics every 2s with color-coded hit-rate cards, charting and controls to refresh/clear the cache, and provide a written design for migrating to a distributed cache (centralized vs replicated and invalidation strategy). Skills tested: Java, Data Structures, Angular, Microservices. Saxon Global
