I should care about Caching when using Ghost?

Using Ghost

Hi,

For WordPress I see many server cache optimize like Nginx cache FastCGI, Redis cache, Application cache, etc.

So, regarding to Ghost, I should optimize cache for it

Yes, putting a cache in front of Ghost is recommended if you plan to run it at scale, more info here:

Varnish works especially well with Ghost I’ve found. This was a helpful guide to get started; I don’t even need nginx anymore :slight_smile:

The only consideration is to flush the cache when you write a new post or make theme changes. You can use Ghost’s web hooks to call a private url that Varnish uses to clear it, so it happens entirely in the background. Dennis details that too.
