The term “BranchedCache” refers to a Wide Area Network (WAN) bandwidth optimization technology implemented in some versions of MS Windows. BranchCache accelerates the process of serving network content by saving previously requested WAN resources on local servers or client computers which allows the subsequent requests to be served locally rather than from a remote server.
