Caching

Caching enhances web application performance by storing frequently accessed data in memory, reducing server load and bandwidth consumption. It can be implemented on both the client side, through browser caching, and the server side, using proxy servers. This allows for faster data retrieval and lower latency when accessing web content.

Caching

Web Caching:
Caching is a technique that improves the performance and scalability
of web applications by storing frequently used data in memory, so that
it can be retrieved faster and with less server load.

Caching can also reduce the bandwidth consumption and latency of


web applications by serving cached content to the clients instead of
fetching it from the original source.
Both implemented at Server side and client side/user

Brower Cache/Client Side/User Side:


When a user visit a web page, the browser downloads the content from the server
and saves it in the local storage. Next time, when the user will access the same web
page, the request will not go to server for data access, rather it will use locally
stored data.
Browser Cache will typically store the images, css files, JavaScript, html pages and
other web resources.

Proxy / Server Cache:


When a client requests web content, this request is delivered to the proxy server. If
the requested content is with proxy server, it will entertain user request from that
cache / proxy server rather to go the main server and search complete database.
