Serverside Caching with Next API Routes
Is anyone super familiar with how fetch with next revalidate on api routes works? I know Next API uses lambdas, so I'm curious how data is cached. I'm assuming it is somewhere in Vercel's dbs, but just wanted to see if anyone knew for sure.

I don't know the specifics where the cache is stored but they do have docs that go into more detail on their caching and revalidating systems work:
