The meeting participants discuss the concept of response caching and its limitations. They explore an alternative solution called data caching, which allows arbitrary data to be stored and retrieved using keys. The participants discuss the process of setting up data caching and how to map specific statistics within the retrieved data. They also mention the possibility of encoding and decoding JSON data. Overall, the focus is on finding a fast and efficient solution for storing and retrieving game statistics without relying on a traditional database.
