Cache Rules go GA: precision control over every part of your cache

Cache Rules provide granular control over how long content is cached on Cloudflare's edge nodes for each request made by a user. This feature allows administrators to set custom caching policies based on the specific needs of their applications and websites, improving performance and reducing load on the origin server. Cache Rules can be created using fields, operators, and values, allowing for highly customized caching configurations that consider factors such as HTTP headers, URL paths, request methods, and more. By utilizing Cache Rules, administrators can take advantage of Cloudflare's global network to store frequently accessed content closer to end-users, thereby reducing latency and improving overall website performance. Additionally, by specifying custom caching policies, administrators can optimize their cache utilization, ensuring that resources are allocated efficiently and effectively across the entire content delivery network (CDN). Overall, Cache Rules offer a powerful tool for fine-tuning Cloudflare's caching behavior to better meet the unique needs of individual applications and websites. As such, they represent an important component in any comprehensive strategy for optimizing website performance and enhancing user experience on the Internet.
