Why Cache Strategy Matters for Web Performance
Proper cache configuration can dramatically improve your website's loading speed, reduce server load, and enhance user experience. Different content types require different caching strategies for optimal performance.
Cache Strategy Types Explained
Understanding different cache strategies:
- Cache First: Serve from cache first, fallback to network if not found
- Network First: Try network first, fallback to cache if network fails
- Stale While Revalidate: Serve stale content while updating cache in background
- Cache Only: Only serve from cache, never hit the network
- Network Only: Always fetch from network, bypass cache
Optimizing for Cloud Hosting
When hosting on cloud platforms like Kloudbean, proper cache configuration becomes crucial for cost optimization and performance. CDN integration and edge caching can significantly reduce bandwidth costs and improve global performance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What's the difference between max-age and expires?
Max-age is HTTP/1.1 standard that specifies cache duration in seconds, while Expires uses absolute dates. Max-age takes precedence when both are present.
Q. Should I use ETags for all content?
ETags are most beneficial for dynamic content that changes frequently. Static assets with long cache times may not need ETags.
Q. How do I handle cache busting?
Use versioned URLs or query parameters for static assets, and implement proper cache invalidation strategies for dynamic content.
Q. What's the optimal cache duration?
It depends on content type: static assets (1 year), CSS/JS (1 month), HTML (1 hour), API responses (5-15 minutes).
