runtime-cache

Vercel runtime cache provides a per-region, key-value store for serverless functions, routing middleware, and builds. It improves data retrieval latency and reduces origin server load by storing data isolated to specific Vercel regions.

You can invalidate cached API responses using tag-based invalidation. By assigning tags to your cached data, you can granularly purge specific cache entries when the underlying data updates, such as via a CMS webhook, without resetting the entire cache.

Yes, the Vercel Runtime Cache API integrates directly with Next.js caching mechanisms. It also supports Vercel Functions, Routing Middleware, and Builds to optimize data retrieval across different frameworks.

The best way to cache data per-region on Vercel is using the Runtime Cache API. It allows you to set key-value pairs with specific TTLs and tags, ensuring faster data retrieval for regional users while reducing load on origin servers.

Yes, the Vercel Runtime Cache is framework agnostic. It integrates with Vercel Functions, Routing Middleware, and Builds, allowing you to implement per-region key-value caching and tag-based invalidation across various frameworks.

Yes, the Vercel Runtime Cache API offers CLI commands for cache management. These commands allow you to manage your per-region key-value cache and execute tag-based invalidation directly from your terminal or build scripts.
