the data retrieval or processing tasks performed by your application could be CPU intensive or take several seconds to complete. When this is the case, it is common to cache the retrieved data for a time so it can be retrieved quickly on subsequent requests for the same data. The cached data is usually stored in a very fast data store such as <a href="https://memcached.org">Memcached</a> or <a href="https://redis.io">Redis</a>.</p> <p>Thankfully, Laravel provides an expressive, unified API for various cache backends, allowing you to take advantage of their blazing fast data retrieval and speed up your web application.</p> <h2 id="configuration"><a href="#configuration">Configuration</a></h2> <p>Your application's cache configuration file is located at <code>config/cache.php</code>. In this file, you may specify which cache store you would like to be used by default throughout your application. Laravel supports popular caching backends like <a href="https://memcached.org">Memcached</a>, <a href="https://redis.io">Redis</a>, <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/dynamodb">DynamoDB</a>, and relational databases out of the box. In addition, a file based cache driver is available, while <code>array</code> and "null" cache drivers provide convenient cache backends for your automated tests.</p> <p>The cache configuration file also contains a variety of other options that you may review. By default, Laravel is configured to use the <code>database</code> cache driver, which stores the serialized, cached objects in your application's database.</p> <h3 id="driver-prerequisites"><a href="#driver-prerequisites">Driver Prerequisites</a></h3> <h4 id="prerequisites-database"><a href="#prerequisites-database">Database</a></h4> <p>When using the <code>database</code> cache driver, you will need a database table to contain the cache data. Typically, this is included in Laravel's default <code>0001_01_01_000001_create_cache_table.php</code> <a href="/docs/11.x/migrations">database migration</a>; however, if your application does not contain this migration, you may use the <code>make:cache-table</code> Artisan command to create it:</p> <div class="code-container"> <pre><code data-theme="olaolu-palenight" data-lang="shell" class='torchlight' style='background-color: #292D3E; --theme-selection-background: #7580B850;'><div class='line'><span style="color: #BFC7D5;">php </span><span style="color: #BFC7D5;">artisan</span><span style="color: #BFC7D5;"> </span><span style="color: #BFC7D5;">make:cache-table</span></div><div class='line'> </div><div class='line'><span style="color: #BFC7D5;">php </span><span style="color: #BFC7D5;">artisan</span><span style="color: #BFC7D5;"> </span><span style="color: #BFC7D5;">migrate</span></div></code></pre> </div> <h4 id="memcached"><a href="#memcached">Memcached</a></h4> <p>Using the Memcached driver requires the <a href="https://pecl.php.net/package/memcached">Memcached PECL package</a> to be installed. You may list all of your Memcached servers in the <code>config/cache.php</code> configuration file.

In addition, official Laravel deployment platforms such as <a href="https://forge.laravel.com">Laravel Forge</a> and <a href="https://vapor.laravel.com">Laravel Vapor</a> have the PhpRedis extension installed by default.</p> <p>For more information on configuring Redis, consult its <a href="/docs/11.x/redis#configuration">Laravel documentation page</a>.</p> <h4 id="dynamodb"><a href="#dynamodb">DynamoDB</a></h4> <p>Before using the <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/dynamodb">DynamoDB</a> cache driver, you must create a DynamoDB table to store all of the cached data. Typically, this table should be named <code>cache</code>. However, you should name the table based on the value of the <code>stores.dynamodb.table</code> configuration value within the <code>cache</code> configuration file. The table name may also be set via the <code>DYNAMODB_CACHE_TABLE</code> environment variable.</p> <p>This table should also have a string partition key with a name that corresponds to the value of the <code>stores.dynamodb.attributes.key</code> configuration item within your application's <code>cache</code> configuration file. By default, the partition key should be named <code>key</code>.</p> <p>Typically, DynamoDB will not proactively remove expired items from a table. Therefore, you should <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/TTL.html">enable Time to Live (TTL)</a> on the table. When configuring the table's TTL settings, you should set the TTL attribute name to <code>expires_at</code>.</p> <p>Next, install the AWS SDK so that your Laravel application can communicate with DynamoDB:</p> <div class="code-container"> <pre><code data-theme="olaolu-palenight" data-lang="shell" class='torchlight' style='background-color: #292D3E; --theme-selection-background: #7580B850;'><div class='line'><span style="color: #BFC7D5;">composer </span><span style="color: #BFC7D5;">require</span><span style="color: #BFC7D5;"> </span><span style="color: #BFC7D5;">aws/aws-sdk-php</span></div></code></pre> </div> <p>In addition, you should ensure that values are provided for the DynamoDB cache store configuration options.

For certain types of data, it can be useful to allow partially stale data to be served while the cached value is recalculated in the background, preventing some users from experiencing slow response times while cached values are calculated. This is often referred to as the "stale-while-revalidate" pattern, and the <code>Cache::flexible</code> method provides an implementation of this pattern.</p> <p>The flexible method accepts an array that specifies how long the cached value is considered “fresh” and when it becomes “stale.” The first value in the array represents the number of seconds the cache is considered fresh, while the second value defines how long it can be served as stale data before recalculation is necessary.</p> <p>If a request is made within the fresh period (before the first value), the cache is returned immediately without recalculation.

For example, you may acquire a lock during a web request and wish to release the lock at the end of a queued job that is triggered by that request. In this scenario, you should pass the lock's scoped "owner token" to the queued job so that the job can re-instantiate the lock using the given token.</p> <p>In the example below, we will dispatch a queued job if a lock is successfully acquired.
