# `@gitbook/cache-do`
Cache backend, powered by Cloudflare Durable Objects. The cache is optimized for GitBook use-cases.
### Performances
The cache backend is optimized for performances by being distributed and accessible close to the worker locations that are reading it.
### Geo-distribution
To achieve a good balance between **performances** and **consistency**, cache objects are distributed over 7 locations, representing continents.
It makes it possible to purge all 7 locations in one go and achieve fast consistency.
### Concepts
**Cache tag**: unique tag in the cache environment. A cache tag groups multiple keys that should be purged together in one operation.
Cache tags should not contain a large set of unique keys. Exceeding thousands could lead to performances or reliability issues.
**Cache key**: unique key in the cache environment. Each key should be assigned to a `tag`.
**Location**: cache is distributed over 7 unique locations, one for each continent.
