What is stale content, and how it should be treated?
2017-03-29
Stale content is the one that has expired in cache. It’s widely known that CDN (content delivery network) doesn’t keep an object in cache forever: every file has a TTL (Time to live), and as soon as it reaches zero, the object expires.

CDN or caching: what is better?
2017-03-15
Before CDN (content delivery network) was introduced, traditional caching had been the major way of page acceleration. Some people claim that CDN is preferable because it caches and transfers static files (codes, JavaScript, CSS, images) and improves performance by requesting the entire web page from domain. However, there is an older and cheaper alternative: setting the Expires header and forcing browser to cache static files which allows reducing the number of requests. What is the best for performance, and may the two ways be combined? more...
