Get blazing fast speeds with zero configuration!
FlyCache is Flywheel’s proprietary caching engine, specifically designed to make WordPress sites fly. It’s especially powerful because it works side-by-side with our CDN to serve up cached content from global points of presence (POP). When your users hit your site, they receive those files from the server that is geographically closest to them, which decreases load time, improves performance, and ensures all users have the same high-quality digital experience (no matter where they’re located)!
