Dynamic caching

Caching dynamic content is one of the most important aspects of improving WebSphere Commerce performance, improving...

• response time
• throughput

As a result, the site has better performance, and infrastructure costs can be reduced.

Since the page layout design and the access pattern of each Web site is so different, cachespec.xml needs to be customized and configured differently in order to maximize the benefit of dynamic caching as much as possible.

All our sample stores come with a default dynamic cache configuration file that consists of some basic rules to cache some obvious pages (that is, product display). These rules are a good starting point to understand the potential of dynamic cache, but are not sufficient to make the store operate in the most efficient way.

The same cache tuning parameters are discussed in Chapter 13, Caching.
