GM folks. Quick question for folks who understand HTTP caching on reverse proxies like Squid or Cloudflare. If I have a GET REST endpoint responding with 200 OK and the following headers:
Cache-Control: public, max-age=3600
ETag: "123-a"
The proxy should cache and serve the response without hitting the underlying server more than once for the first hour, then send a request with If-Match: "123-a" when the cache goes stale, right? Is there any reason why it wouldn’t?
