Blizhost CloudCache Purge sends a request to the Blizhost servers clear the cache every time the content of your site is modified. This occurs when publishing, editing, commenting or deleting a page or post, and when changing themes.
Our plugin will also make your WordPress site completely compatible with CloudCache!
This plugin is exclusive to Blizhost customers, and will have no results if used outside of our hosting.
What is CloudCache?
CloudCache is an HTTP accelerator designed for high traffic websites. Your website is delivered directly from the RAM of the server, making loading 300x more faster and dramatically increasing access capacity to the site.
In contrast to other web accelerators, such as Squid, which began life as a client-side cache, or Apache and nginx, which are primarily origin servers, CloudCache was designed as an HTTP accelerator. CloudCache is focused exclusively on HTTP, unlike other proxy servers that often support FTP, SMTP and other network protocols.
Technologies like CloudCache are used by high-profile, high-traffic websites including Wikipedia, online newspaper sites such as The New York Times, The Guardian, The Hindu, Corriere della Sera, social media and content sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Vimeo, and Tumblr. Among the Top 10 thousand sites in the web, around a tenth use this technology.
