  • Patent number: 10440142
    Abstract: Among other things, this document describes systems, devices, and methods for improving cache efficiency by automatically discovering and updating time to live (TTL) settings for cached content. TTL values define how long content may be served from a cache before the cache should return to origin to verify the freshness of the content. TTL values may be set by an origin server, using an appropriate HTTP header for example, or by manual configuration action, or otherwise. A cache may adjust this TTL value—or generate a TTL value if none is provided, based at least in part on cache performance characteristics and targets, along with an analysis of the history of purge events.
