• Varnish Cache

  Varnish Cache is a tool that provides a caching HTTP reverse proxy in order to accelerate your web applications. Once Varnish Cache is installed in front of any server that understands HTTP and configured to cache the contents, delivery speeds are typically enhanced by a factor of 300-1000x, depending on architecture. Kilobyte22 finds this tool along with HAProxy to be a winning combo. Source: about 1 year ago

• Leveraging Cache to improve Web Performance

• Beyond Changing Technology: Scaling Your Applications Efficiently

  To handle this level of traffic, you can use tools such as Varnish HTTP Cache, which caches the information of a news article starting from the first user who accesses and makes the request. Once Varnish caches the page, subsequent users will receive a response that is saved in memory. This process allows you to avoid unnecessary synchronous requests and send a quick response to users. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• Web resource caching: Server-side

  A couple of dedicated server-side resource caching solutions have emerged over the years: Memcached, Varnish, Squid, etc. Other solutions are less focused on web resource caching and more generic, e.g., Redis or Hazelcast. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
