Low overhead
Multiple blocks fetched in a single request.
Backend bypass
Last viewed, compare and stock tracking without hitting Magento.
Navigation
Layered navigation, filters and toolbar options supported.
Multiple views
Multi-store, multi-currency and customer groups.
AJAX support
Works with AJAX-based cart extensions.
Crawler
Built-in crawler keeps the cache warm.
How LiteMage Compares
| Approach | What happens |
|---|---|
| Varnish-based (e.g. Turpentine) | Complex setup; dynamic blocks are requested one by one, repeating Magento's heavy initialisation; HTTPS needs another proxy layer. |
| PHP-based full-page cache | Pages are still assembled by PHP, so scalability is limited by PHP and DDoS resistance is weak. |
| LiteMage | Whole pages — including private blocks — assembled from cache in one request, with native HTTPS, HTTP/2, HTTP/3 and anti-DDoS. |
