A cache is a high-speed data storage layer which stores a subset of data, typically transient in nature, so that future requests for that data are served up faster than the data’s primary storage location. This website describes use cases, best practices, and technology solutions for caching.

It's easy to get started with caching in the cloud with a fully-managed service like Amazon ElastiCache. It removes the complexity of setting up, managing and administering your cache, and frees you up to focus on what brings value to your organization.
Memcached - a widely adopted memory object caching system. ElastiCache is protocol compliant with Memcached, so popular tools that you use today with existing Memcached environments will work seamlessly with the service.
This post provides a detailed overview of the prompt caching feature on Amazon Bedrock and offers guidance on how to effectively use this feature to achieve improved latency and cost savings.
Without proper caching mechanisms, organizations face increased costs, reduced application performance, and potential bottlenecks that can impact critical business operations. Amazon S3 offers powerful capabilities that align perfectly with modern caching needs.
Caching – ElastiCache for Valkey is extensively used as a caching layer to improve application performance by storing frequently accessed data in memory. This reduces the load on databases and improves response times.
With prompt caching, supported models will let you cache these repeated prompt prefixes between requests. This cache lets the model skip recomputation of matching prefixes. As a result, prompt caching in Amazon Bedrock can reduce costs by up to 90% and latency by up to 85% for supported models.
In this post, we'll explore how to combine Amazon Bedrock prompt caching with Claude Code—a coding agent released by Anthropic that is now generally available.
