Right exactly — a sync engine like Electric maintains replicas of data wherever you like. So natural places are web apps, mobile apps, backend services, etc. Here's an example showing how to sync a table from PG to Redis https://github.com/electric-sql/electric/blob/main/examples/...

It's dramatically faster to read from a local copy of data vs. sending the query to Postgres and can eliminate a lot of network and db load as well.
