Configure how TYPO3 caches are stored to optimize performance for your hosting environment.

The default configuration works well for most installations. Depending on your setup, performance can be improved by choosing a different cache storage type.
Database storage is typically the best choice for standard environments and installations using network file systems (NFS), where frequent file access may reduce performance.
File-based caches can be more efficient in shared hosting environments or when using distributed databases.
For advanced installations, memory-based cache backends such as Redis or Memcached can provide additional performance improvements. These require further configuration in system/settings.php.

Select Custom settings to configure the storage backend for each cache individually.

Cache types:

Page

Stores the cached content of individual pages.

Page Section

Stores TypoScript instructions and data required to generate page content and the handling of non-cacheable objects.

Hash

Stores internal data used during page generation, such as menu structures.

Rootline

Stores the full hierarchy of pages leading to the current page, including translation and timing information. Used for menus and link generation.

Image Sizes

Stores calculated image dimensions separately to reduce file system access.
