Check Fastly cache to be working properly
 Check the headers for your site
 At a minimum check your home page, but also consider checking individual category & product
pages
 Look for HIT in the X-Cache header
 Once is perfectly ok, either order is fine. Just don't want MISS, MISS.
 Use any tool you like (HTTPie, cURL, Postman, even Chrome)
 May need to run a request two or more times before cache hit

Warm-up pages to be configured
 Don't make your first customer(s) do all the heavy lifting
 Make sure key URLs are already cached by Fastly immediately after deploy
 Configure WARM_UP_PAGES
 List of URLs and/or patterns (categories or CMS pages)
14
stage:
post-deploy:
WARM_UP_PAGES:
- / # your home page
- /contact # contact page
- cms-page:*:default # all the CMS pages for your default store
- category:toys:* # the "toy" category for all your stores
- category:|.*red.*|:5 # any category with the word "red" in it for your store ID 5
