LiteSpeed Cache
LiteSpeed Cache, also called LSCache, is a highly customizable high-performance page cache for dynamic content built into LiteSpeed Web Server. Similar to Varnish but more efficient, LiteSpeed Cache is included free in 2-CPU+ licenses and is available as a purchase-able add-on for all other LSWS licenses, v4.0 and above.
LSCache's features are very similar to those in Apache mod_cache, but are implemented in a more efficient way. LiteSpeed cache works like Varnish. It is an output cache for dynamic contents, so the usage is not limited to PHP pages. Unlike Varnish, LiteSpeed cache is built into LiteSpeed's web server, thus eliminating one layer of reverse proxy. This translates into higher efficiency for static content, and a faster, more enjoyable experience for your users.
LSCache Plugins by Application
LSCache plugins are available for many popular web applications. The plugins allow you to configure and manage your LiteSpeed server's cache simply and easily, through the application's own familiar interface.
Before you can use an LSCache plugin, you must first execute a few common cache setup steps. Once that is complete, follow the instructions for your particular web application below.
LSCache Configuration Without Plugins
