Accelerate and Secure Your Mobile Apps with API Caching

Enhance API & Web performance and security while maximizing user experiences with API caching.

Microcaching

Aksela accelerates your webpages & APIs by compressing, optimizing and caching dynamic content such as HTML, Javascript, CSS or cookies on our PoPs located in more than 50 different locations around the world, and delivers them to end users.

With Aksela dynamic content caching, you can also accelerate pages containing user-specific private content.

Tested and proven. It delivers your web pages & APIs 86% faster*.

Advanced API Caching

Different API requests sent by consumers or clients will make large numbers of requests flow into your API endpoint. In case of a popular web/mobile application, these requests can reach millions of API calls such as POST and GET requests each day.

With Medianova, you save on infrastructure costs by benefiting from our smart caching system for REST and GraphQL.

Your Security = Our Priority

Unlike the traditional scenario, Aksela prevents heavy traffic to reach your origin. It provides IP Protection, Bad Bot Protection and DDoS mitigation thanks to its Anycast DNS structure. It also allows you to stop attacks from a certain geography by only one click with Geo-Blocking.

It is natively integrated with Web Application Firewall (WAF), which provides defense against OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities. WAF analyzes two-way request traffic and bans malicious ones.

Besides, it includes a TLS 1.3 to provide free HTTPS security to prevent data theft and increase your security.

100% Availability

Even if your primary origin source is down, your site will continue to be accessible without any 5xx errors thanks to Aksela.

In addition, you guarantee business continuity thanks to its technology that performs regular backups in geographically distributed PoPs.

Reduced Cost & Increased Scalability

Thanks to our infrastructure using cutting-edge technologies such as Docker Container and advanced caching; Aksela, not only increases your scalability, but also reduces your resource usage by offloading the requests from origin infrastructures.

Scale rapidly for traffic spikes and save on infrastructure costs by reducing load on your origin.

Application programming interface is a technique that leverages edge servers and Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) to quickly deliver content to users. For this technique to work, globally distributed edge servers are placed at strategic locations by the CDN service provider to minimize latency and provide fast access to data. On the edge server itself, a special cache is implemented that can store data for a certain period of time, that can be even defined as a second. Whenever online shopper requests information from the edge server, the CDN checks its local cache first before accessing the central server. If the requested data is found on the edge server’s cache, then it can respond immediately with no delay. If not, the CDN will retrieve the data from the central server and cache it on the edge node so that it can be quickly accessed the next time it is needed.

This can dramatically decrease latency and improve the speed and performance of an e-commerce website. Even users located further away from the remote API are served quickly.

It also reduces the load on the API server, freeing up resources for other users. It helps to scale rapidly for traffic spikes and improves availability of your website. Thus, API caching is an essential solution for e-commerce websites.

By utilizing an application programming interface caching solution, you can streamline internal processes like product recommendations, reviews and filtering. This improves overall data management and reduces load time for pages that rely on extensive data sets. Moreover, incorporating API caching into your e-commerce platform offers other key benefits, including reduced server loads, better scalability, improved security, and more streamlined application functionality. Further, by taking advantage of this powerful technology tool, you can help ensure the continued success of your business as well as provide a superior online shopping experience for your customers.

Let’s take a look at the key benefits of using API caching for e-commerce stores.

Improved Site Performance

In the world of e-commerce, performance is key. Consumers have little patience for slow-loading pages, and a sluggish website can quickly lead to lost sales. One way to improve performance is using API caching.

By caching API responses at the edge, e-commerce sites can avoid having to make round trips to the origin server for each API call. This can save a significant amount of time, especially if the origin server is located far away from the user.

In addition, by caching API responses on a CDN, e-commerce sites can further improve performance and availability by taking advantage of the CDN servers located around the world. In short, API caching can be a powerful solution for e-commerce websites.

Enhanced Security

API caching is an important security measure for e-commerce websites, as it helps to protect against a wide range of threats that could compromise user data and financial information. API caching provides an extra layer of security by hiding the remote API, reducing frequent access to the backend database and limiting exposure to possible attacks. It also improves defense against DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) threats by leveraging powerful technologies and features of the distributed edge network.

With effective API caching, e-commerce platforms can provide users with a secure and trustworthy browsing experience.

Reduced Infrastructure Costs & Scalability & Availability

Caching is a tried-and-true way to reduce database & server costs. By caching API calls, you can eliminate the need to repeatedly query your database. This can free up resources and improve performance while also reducing your infrastructure costs.

By reducing load on your remote API and offloading transactions to CDN, API caching improves scalability and makes it possible to deal with huge traffic spikes. It also improves the availability of your e-commerce platform by preventing your site from crashing during bursts of traffic.

SEO Booster

By using API caching, you can increase SEO scores to top levels in indexes such as First Input Delay (FID), Speed Index (SI), Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), First Contentful Paint (FCP), Time to Interactive (TTI).

Your website, which is served from geographically distributed PoPs, gets full marks in performance and Core Web Vital tests of Google.

The faster your site is the higher it ranks on Search Engines.

Application programming interface caching can help to improve the performance of your e-commerce store by reducing the number of requests that need to be made to your backend servers. This not only speeds up page loading times for customers, but it also helps to reduce server load, which can prevent your site from crashing during periods of high traffic.

In addition, API caching can also help you to better manage and monitor your site’s resources. By using an API cache, you can ensure that your most popular pages are always available.

Moreover, API caching provides IP protection and improves security of e-commerce websites against everyday attempts of intrusion on your users’ data and financial information.

To improve the performance of your e-commerce site or app, consider implementing an API cache solution.
