Caching the Uncacheable: Hooman Beheshti at Velocity Conf 2014

In the past, CDNs have been used to cache and distribute static objects. But issues around invalidation, staleness, and lack of visibility have prevented us from using CDNs to fully leverage the benefits of caching when it comes to dynamic content.
