Summary
Cloudflare has announced Ricochet for its API Gateway, which aims to enhance API traffic by automatically reducing average latency through intelligent caching of repetitive API requests that would otherwise go to the origin server. The feature is set to launch in 2024 and will make a measurable difference speeding up APIs while being easy to start without requiring much time from developers' teams.
