982618 - Please enable caching on aus4.mozilla.org

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Infrastructure & Operations Graveyard :: WebOps: Product Delivery, task)

Description

[[e-mail] (:bhearsum)]

We enabled caching by Zeus on aus3.mozilla.org recently. We discussed by e-mail, and found no reason why we shouldn't enable it on aus4, too. Let's do it!

Note: please don't add any caching to aus4-admin.mozilla.org, just the user-facing side of aus4.mozilla.org

Completed!

strip-nocache rule applied to incoming request
override-server-cache-control rule applied to outgoing response
caching enabled, set to 30s
set to send the following cache header to the client:
    no-store, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0, private
    (probably overkill, but that's what aus3.m.o sent before we implemented caching on it)


This was done on the HTTP and HTTPS VIPs for the public interface. Side note: not sure why there is an HTTP VIP at all... there isn't for AUS3.

Ben points out that HTTP redirects to HTTPS, but the HTTP really shouldn't be used for anything (the content should always be provided securely).
