Caching static commerce pages has boosted customer checkout speed and reduced infrastructure costs
The most valuable aspect is that it is very easy to handle Varnish Cloud TTLs, and Varnish Cloud works very well. I can store any amount of data, and I also appreciate the control over Varnish Cloud, such as with the tags, where I can tag certain areas of caching. I believe the best features Varnish Cloud offers are its management capabilities and the control over Varnish Cloud itself. I appreciate the management interface and how all the management policies are very nicely handled, along with very productive responses. The tool works very well, and I have been seeing the same Varnish technology for the last 11 to 12 years, and I'm continuously working on it. Varnish Cloud is impacting our end users positively, basically in terms of their profit growth because the profit is coming from saving the infrastructure load and also serving the customer website very fast. It is giving a faster load speed which helped customers purchase things faster and finish the checkout journey as soon as possible, and it has also helped the website vendor reduce the cost of infrastructure.
