Redirect HTTP requests to a cache

Last published : Sep 30, 2026
The NetScaler cache redirection feature redirects HTTP requests to a cache. You can significantly reduce the impact of responding to HTTP requests and improve your website performance through proper implementation of the cache redirection feature.
A cache stores frequently requested HTTP content. When you configure cache redirection on a virtual server, the NetScaler appliance sends cacheable HTTP requests to the cache, and non-cacheable HTTP requests to the origin Web server.
