text: **Optimize your API with caching (REST API only)**
  
  To reduce the number of calls made to your endpoint and improve the latency of requests to your 
  
  API, you can cache responds from your endpoint for a speciﬁed time-to-live period. API Gateway 
  
  will respond to the request by using the cache instead of your end point. This can speed up your 
  
  latency.
