How Caching Works

Droplet provides managed edge caching for every application, reducing origin load and improving response times for users around the world.

Cache layers

• Edge cache — Droplet caches eligible responses close to your users
• Browser cache — Cache-Control headers tell browsers how long to cache assets

What gets cached

By default, Droplet caches static assets (JS, CSS, images, fonts) based on the Cache-Control header returned by your application. Dynamic routes are not cached unless you explicitly configure cache rules.
