Varnish is a versatile reverse HTTP proxy that caches responses from backend servers in memory so they are served quickly from main memory when they are requested again.In this tutorial, you will set up Varnish as a caching reverse proxy server. You’ll then test the setup with Varnish against a non-caching configuration using wrk.
Memory object caching systems like Memcached can optimize backend database performance by temporarily storing information in memory, retaining frequently or recently requested records. In this guide, we will cover how to protect your Memcached server by binding your installation to a local or private interface and creating an authorized user for your Memcached instance.
Caching is a method of creating faster delivery of your most commonly accessed content. Apache has a number of different methods of caching content that take advantage of different aspects of the file system and of HTTP header information. This article will discuss different methods to cache your content to improve your site speed.

Varnish Cache is a caching HTTP reverse proxy, or HTTP accelerator, which reduces the time it takes to serve content to a user. In this tutorial, we will cover how to use Varnish Cache 4.0 to improve the performance of your existing web server. We will also show you a way to add HTTPS support to Varnish, with Nginx performing the SSL termination.
Amongst the many features that the incredible Yii framework offers, a cache management system is something that couldn’t have been missing. Yii framework allows us to save both static data and your SQL/Active Record queries, which -if used wisely- can lead to a lot of page loading time saving. In particular, in this tutorial we are going to learn how to cache Data and Queries.
In this guide, you will install and configure a Memcached server. You’ll also add authentication to secure Memcached using Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL). Finally, you’ll learn how to bind Memcached to a local or private network interface to ensure that it is only accessible on trusted networks, by authenticated users.
ProxySQL is a SQL-aware proxy server that can be positioned between your application and your database to create a caching layer to optimize MySQL queries. In this tutorial, you will use ProxySQL to set up transparent caching for a MySQL server on Ubuntu 16.04. You will then test its performance using mysqlslap with and without caching to demonstrate the effect of caching and how much time it can save when executing many similar queries.
