Your Worker can now have its own cache in front of it

Why it matters

If you're running server-rendered apps or backends on Cloudflare Workers, this lets cache hits skip Worker execution (and its CPU billing) entirely using just standard Cache-Control headers and Wrangler config — no need for a separate CDN layer or build-time prerendering to get near-static edge performance.

Key quotes

“On a cache hit, your Worker doesn't run at all. Cloudflare returns the cached response and your CPU billing stays at zero.”

“Workers stopped being a thing you bolted onto an origin and started being the origin.”

“You get the speed of a static site without the build time, and the freshness of server rendering without the cost.”

“We don't know of another platform that gives you a cache that sits inside a single deployable unit, between the parts of your application, with each cache stage configured by the code on either side of it.”
