Lower usage charges with static caching on the Webslice Serverless CDN

There’s a way to display pages to visitors without triggering any usage costs.

With Webslice Serverless, static file caching doesn’t just make your site faster, it also makes your hosting cheaper. 

Webslice Serverless makes it possible to speed up page load times by serving static files from our Content Delivery Network (CDN), and nowhere else.

Use less, pay less

Imagine you’re running an ecommerce store with hundreds of products. Any page, product page or otherwise, written out as HTML files can be cached and loaded by the CDN alone. 

That’s because Webslice operates its own global CDN, which we’ve built in front of Webslice Serverless. If you configure the site to Cache All Static Files, static content will be served by the CDN which reduces serverless runtime costs.

And that lowers the AWS bills sitting behind the usage costs in your Webslice bills.
