You can often do this using built-in apps on your operating system. This means that you can reduce latency and speed up your content delivery times , regardless of where your customers are based. A cache functions as a temporary storage location that keeps copies of your web pages on hand (once theyve been requested).

STM generates traffic that replicates the typical path or behavior of a user on a network to measure performance for example, response times, availability, packet loss, latency, jitter, and other variables). One use case for STM is to model the behavior of a customer in the form of a flow of transactions along the buyer’s journey.
