====== Microsoft BranchCache ======

**Overview**: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuddLWkLq4U

  * For distributed environments
  * Windows 7 and newer

===== Hosted Cache Mode =====

**Hosted Cache Setup**: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQPzwS3PgDM

  * Not limited to single subnet
  * Limited to a single hosted cache (Windows server)

When there is a server running Windows Server 2012 in the office location, BranchCache client computers
are configured in hosted cache mode, and the server is called a hosted cache server.

===== Distributed Cache Mode =====

  * Single network subnet

If your office does not have a server available to deploy as a hosted cache server, you can configure
BranchCache in distributed cache mode on clients. In this mode, the client computers cache downloaded
content and share it with other computers in the office.
