Caching

Caching

Caching is a critical part of any performance improvement strategy.

  • OpenJPA data caching: Cache data in the Commerce Engine's persistence layer using OpenJPA data caching.
  • Application data caching: Cache application data in the Commerce Engine using Ehcache.
  • Storefront data and templates: Cache application data, Velocity templates and related resources for the Storefront server.
  • Static content caching: Cache static content (images, templates, stylesheets, and so on) using a reverse proxy.
