Effective caching increases performance by returning data more quickly to a larger number of users. It also increases scalability by limiting the number of calls required to back-end systems by providing data from a local source instead of requiring a call to the back end.

In Video Starter Kit both data level and page / module level cache has been implemented to control availability of data fastly while keeping scalability and performance of web application in high load of traffic.

Data Cache:

Data cache has been used to cache all shared data that are more frequently display on various parts or more visible pages.
