Browser-Cache Control
Hi we have an issue with the browser caching and all teh static content being downloaded from servers are not being persisted at client browser and fr every consequent reuest it is taking time to load these JS and adding to latency of the application.
I have came across this article talking about setting <env name="http/UseNoCacheHeaders" value="true"/> .
https://support.pega.com/question/browser-cache-control
Am not sure if this setting is still applicable for Pega8.8 versions and need some recommedations where to set this configurations?? should it be a setting in prconfig.xml or server.xml
we have our system deployed on Prem using IBM Libery Application Server and hosted thru Apache Web Server.

@DILEEPKUMAR here is the answer from an SME:
Regarding browser-Cache Control/ http/responseHeaders does not work
--> Only non-static and non-push requests will be compatible with this.

@DILEEPKUMAR all configurable System Settings can be found in the main documentation found here.
PEGA OOTB Browser Cache clear features or mechanism to clear out end user browse cache.
Usenocacheheaders doesn't return 'no-store' and 'mustrevalidate' values

@MarijeSchillern This doesnt help here. am soecifically talkin about the Beowser Cache and I dont think the Static content Cache on a Client browser has any thing to do with teh Caching in teh data base. its about same set os user interfaces being launched by users from same browsers, wits d oing a server interaction every transaction even for teh images or css files or JS bundles which are more static

Did you already go through the available Security Documentation chapters for Mitigating common security vulnerabilities?
- Using HTTP response headers To improve the security of your application against client-based attacks, you can use the HTTP response headers that are supported by your browser.
