Client-side caching and edge caching
In this section, we’re going to show you how to work with client-side caching and edge caching. Client-side caching and edge caching are strategies used to improve performance and reduce the load on servers by storing and serving content closer to the user.
Client-side caching
Client-side caching involves storing resources (e.g., HTML pages, stylesheets, scripts, images) on the client device (such as a web browser) to avoid repeated requests to the server.
Here are some of its advantages:
- Client-side caching reduces server load by serving cached content directly from the client. This means that client-side caching can improve the performance and efficiency of both the web server and the web browser. By serving cached content directly from the client, the web server does not have to process and send the same data repeatedly to the same or different users. This reduces the server load, meaning the amount of work or requests...
