What problem does it solve?

Headless VTEX storefronts often struggle to balance performance and data freshness. Without a clear caching strategy, API calls hit origin services too frequently, leading to increased latency, higher costs, and potential rate-limit issues.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Classify VTEX API responses by cacheability to drive TTLs and invalidation.
  • Define appropriate TTLs and stale-while-revalidate (SWR) patterns for CDN, BFF, and edge caches.
  • Provide an invalidation framework using webhooks, events, and manual purges to keep data fresh.
  • Guide architecture decisions that separate cacheable public data from non-cacheable transactional data.

Quick Start

Configure CDN edge caching and a BFF cache with TTLs and event-driven invalidation for a headless VTEX storefront.
