Caching

Caution

Caching should be used to optimise an already performant experience and not used in place of it. It’s important to ensure that when there are no caches or a cache MISS that the response time of the page is still within 300ms. This ensures the best global performance and in turn provide improvements to SEO rankings.

Set Cache Sheilding

Cache shielding reduces load on origin servers and improves content delivery speed by positioning an additional cache layer closer to users.

Set HTTP Cache Headers

HTTP cache stores web content to reduce server load, decrease loading times, and enhance overall web browsing efficiency for users.

These are controlled by the web application and the approach varies per framework. Please refer to the framework guides below for how to control HTTP header caches.
