📊 Overview
This guide explains a hybrid caching plan for Sitecore XM Cloud apps on Vercel, using different caching layers to improve performance in various settings. In this article, I will explain the caching details using the sample components, which make calls to external APIs to get the required details and use Vercel's edge network for fast content delivery. Advanced caching methods like response headers, ETag checks, and Vercel edge functions are key for speed, scalability, and smooth content delivery in a Next.js or headless Sitecore setup.
