Definition
Edge cache keeps content closer to users, usually inside a CDN or edge infrastructure.
What does it mean in practice?
For websites and online services, Edge cache affects response time, reliability, resource usage and the quality of the network path.
A practical Hostilla.pl example
Measure the same URL from a repeatable location before and after a change. Edge cache should be correlated with server response time, application logs, resource use, caching and the network path rather than judged from one browser refresh.
What should you check?
- the exact URL, device, location and test time
- a baseline for response time and page metrics
- PHP, database, disk, cache and resource usage
- one controlled change followed by the same test
