Built for Performance

Comprehensive caching infrastructure built for performance, reliability, and scale

PERFORMANCE

Intelligent Two-Tier Caching

Our sophisticated caching system combines RAM and disk storage with LRU eviction to deliver optimal performance while managing resources efficiently.

RAM-First Strategy

Hot content cached in RAM for sub-10ms response times

Reduced Server Load

Offload up to 90% of traffic from your origin servers

Scalable Storage

Handles millions of cached objects without performance degradation

RAM Cache

ACTIVE
Hit Rate 98.7%
Avg Response 8ms

Disk Cache

BACKUP
Utilization 67%
Avg Response 45ms

ESI Syntax

<esi:include src="/header" />
<esi:include
  src="/user/cart"
  alt="/cart/empty"
  onerror="continue" />
<!--esi
  <esi:include src="/promo" />
-->

Fragment Performance

Parallel Fetches Concurrent
Timeout 3 seconds
Max Fragment Size 1 MB
Default TTL 60 seconds
DYNAMIC CONTENT

Edge Side Includes

Assemble dynamic pages at the edge by combining cached fragments. Cache static layouts while keeping personalized components fresh, all without sacrificing performance.

Parallel Fragment Fetching

All fragments fetched concurrently with singleflight deduplication to maximize throughput

Graceful Fallbacks

Use alt for backup sources and onerror="continue" to suppress failures

Cookie Forwarding

Cookies automatically forwarded to fragments for personalized content assembly

Fragment Caching

Each fragment cached independently with its own TTL based on Cache-Control headers

AUTOMATION

Automatic Cache Warming

Keep your most important pages instantly available with intelligent background preloading that ensures homepages are always cached and ready to serve.

Smart Background Preloading

Automatically refreshes homepage cache every 10 minutes to ensure instant load times

Origin-Friendly Design

Requests spread with random jitter to avoid overwhelming backend servers

Zero Configuration

Works automatically for all configured domains with no setup required

RELIABILITY

Origin Health Monitoring

Continuous monitoring of your origin servers with instant alerts when issues are detected. Stay informed before your users notice problems.

Automatic Health Checks

TCP connectivity checks every 60 seconds to detect origin failures

Multi-Channel Alerts

Receive notifications via email and webhooks when your origin goes down or recovers

Smart Failure Detection

Alerts trigger after 2 consecutive failures to avoid false positives

SECURITY

Advanced Security Rules

Protect your infrastructure with intelligent behavioral verification and customizable filtering

Behavioral Verification

Advanced bot detection using behavioral analysis, proof-of-work challenges, and device fingerprinting

Analysis Points

  • Mouse movement patterns and velocity analysis
  • Touch gesture recognition for mobile devices
  • WebDriver and automation tool detection
  • Event sequence validation and timing analysis

Proof-of-Work Fallback

When behavioral score is below threshold, challenge users with computational puzzle

Configurable difficulty 1-6 leading zeros

Flexible Filter Rules

Create custom rules to block or challenge traffic based on IP, country, user agent, or path patterns

Rule Types

IP Address
Block or challenge specific IPs or CIDR ranges
Country
Geographic filtering with ISO country codes
User Agent
Pattern matching against browser strings

Actions

BLOCK or CHALLENGE
HTTP/3 + QUIC
40% faster page loads

Stale-While-Revalidate

Serve cached content instantly while refreshing in the background for zero perceived latency

Cache Status SERVING STALE
User receives cached response: 0ms
Refreshing in background...

Per-Domain Configuration

Customize TTL, cache rules, and exclusion patterns for each domain independently

// api.example.com
cache_ttl: 3600
excludes: "^/admin"
// static.example.com
cache_ttl: 604800
image_opt: true

Regex Path Exclusions

Powerful pattern matching to exclude specific paths from caching with regex support

^/api/.*

Exclude all API endpoints

^/admin/.*

Exclude admin panel

.*\.json$
