  • Workers Cache is a tiered cache placed in front of Workers, configured via a simple Wrangler config and Cache-Control headers.
  • It enables cache hits to return cached responses without running the Worker, saving CPU time, and populates the cache on misses.
  • Configuration is minimal: a single config block in wrangler.jsonc with caching enabled, controlled by Cache-Control headers on responses.
  • Features include stale-while-revalidate for background refreshes, Vary header support for content negotiation, and per-entrypoint caching control.
  • The cache is tied to the Worker, not a zone, allowing it to work across domains, workers.dev, previews, and Workers for Platforms.
  • It supports multi-tenant safety via ctx.props in cache keys, ensuring separate cache entries per user or tenant for authenticated requests.
  • Workers Cache integrates with frameworks like Astro, offers observability on the dashboard, and has no separate pricing SKU.
