Hi friends & experts
, I need little more knowledge behind all these caching concept. I know how cache works, but as there are lots of cache systems, I am just little confused. But before this, i m telling you my situation 1st.
Regarding my server: I am on a VPS of 8 GB ram, 4 cpu core & 120 GB SSD. I am using paid cloudlinux shred OS and c-panel as control panel. Using PHP 8.1 as default PHP, using LSAPI as php handler, disabled PHP-FPM. I am expert in my wordpress websites optimization & use wp-rocket plugin, perfmatter plugin, webp images & all other techniques. Also I use cloudflare free cdn in all my websites.
Regarding me, I am not tech expert & I just follow guides. Like I can use commands in whm terminal, follow documentation etc.
1) WP rocket type cache plugins: I am already using wp-rocket cache plugin. I guess this will cache static contents of my website. I think this types of cache plugins are essential & must use for all my wordpress websites.
2) Cloudflare CDN: I am using cloudflare cdn. I think it will further cache my wordpress website. May be this will cache my site independently or just cache the files of wp-rocket generated cache file
. I just do not know how its cache system work. Just experienced my site became faster after using this. And I guess it cache static files only & nt dynamic contents.
3) Nginx reverse proxy cache: I am planning to use nginx reverse proxy in my c-panel (as c-panel support this reverse proxy only & not support full nginx, also I am not expert in nginx at all, only in apache, so not interested to use full nginx now in this server).
Whatever, I think this nginx reverse proxy is server related cache & it will cache the static files of my websites & not dynamic. May be from the server side. But is this required??? as I am already using 2 cache system for static file (E: wp rocket & cloudflare). I fear it may cause some conflicts.
4) Redis cache: I am planning to use this too. I guess It will cache the dynamic files in my RAM. It may be required & and I do not think it will cause any conflicts. Also I know how to configure it in my server (50-70% knowledge btw) & in my wordpress website by using a plugin.
5) Opcache: I do not know what the heck is this really. It is just enabled by default in my easyapache 4 setting. Is it required btw? If yes, then what more it will cache. static or dynamic. I guess by using above 4 cache, I have already cached too much
So friends & experts; I am planning to use all above cache. I m already testing them in my test vps server. I just need your help in understanding them like how they works, should use or not, any conflicts if I use them all etc.
I hope you understand what I mean..
So plz give your valuable guidance.
Thanks in advance to whoever help me.
Kind regards.
