Cross-Domain Caching

[Diego Rabatone]

Hi James and Per,

thank you very much for answering my question.

First of all, I have the permission to embed the content. All embeds are
from websites that are offer the service of building data visualizations
and infographics, me and my team use them to build our products and they
all have embeding options.

I like the option to only revalidate the contet, instead of refetching it,
but I didn't understand completly how could I do it Per.

I will try and example, tell me if I'm making any conecptual mistake.

My cached domain is: *estadaodados.com <http://estadaodados.com>* , this is
were I have full control and where my Varnish is.

On *estadaodados.com/iframe <http://estadaodados.com/iframe>* I want to
embed, using an Iframe, a page from *example.com <http://example.com>*,
exactly this page: *example.com/123* <http://example.com/123>

So, instead of using *<iframe src="http://example.com/123
<http://example.com/123>"></iframe>*
I should set *example.com <http://example.com>* as a *backend* on my
varnish with:

backend infograph {
    .host="example.com"
}

And set this vcl_recv rule:

sub vlc_recv {
  if (req.http.host ~ "infographics.estadaodados.com") {
     set req.backend_hint = example.com
  }

And then use the iframe with:


*<iframe src="infographics.estadaodados.com/123
<http://infographics.estadaodados.com/123>"></iframe>*

That's it?

Thanks for your attention,

Best,
