+## FastCGI Cache
+
+You can enable FastCGI Cache by setting `php_fastcgi_cache_enabled` to `true`.
+If you want to clear the cache, you need to call from the same machine this
+corresponding URL : `http://[[php_base_name]].purge.cache.fastcgi.nginx.local/`
+
+More information about caching features can be found in `defaults/main.yml`.
