Set the datacenter/colo for the cache API
Hi, is there a way to cache a page on a certain datacenter using the cache api? I see the following quote in the docs but curious if I can force it to a specific datacenter?
The Cache API is available globally but the contents of the cache do not replicate outside of the originating data center.

No, it's just whatever one the worker is running in
additionally the cache api doesn't support tiered caching
Shoot, okay. Maybe I can just use R2 as a quick and dirty fallback. I don't really need speed per se - I want to not hit the origin multiple times if/when my automation visits the site
If your automation runs from the same server it's likely it'd hit the same dc
although cache is still pretty iffy though because some Cloudflare locations have mutiple datacenters each with their own cache
main upside is it being free
Thats true. I didn't realize that the cache api is free
