How sCloud FiveM Cache works

sCloud FiveM Cache sits in front of your FiveM resource downloads.

Step 1

A player connects to your FiveM server

FiveM starts requesting the resource files needed to join the server.

Step 2

The download request goes to sCloud

Your server.cfg points resource downloads to the sCloud cache URL instead of sending every request directly to your server.

Step 3

sCloud checks whether the file is cached

If the file is already cached, it is served from sCloud. If it is missing, sCloud fetches it from your FiveM server once.

Step 4

Future players reuse the cached copy

After a MISS is fetched and stored, later players can receive the same resource from cache until you purge or refresh it.

Cache HIT and Cache MISS

Cache HIT

sCloud already has the resource. The player downloads it from cache, and your FiveM server does not need to send that file again.

Cache MISS

sCloud does not have the resource yet. It fetches the file from your FiveM server once, stores it, and serves the player.

Why it helps

Purge

Use purge when you update resources and need players to receive the latest files.

Preload

Use preload to warm important resources before players connect after a restart or update.

Analytics

Use analytics to understand requests, cache HIT ratio, and how much origin traffic is avoided.

In short

Your origin server is only used when sCloud needs a fresh copy. Repeated downloads can be served from cache, which helps reduce server bandwidth usage and makes player joins easier to handle.

How it works

sCloud FiveM Cache is built for server owners who want fewer bandwidth spikes when players connect. Your origin server stays in control, and sCloud handles repeated resource download requests when the cache is warm.

1

Add the sCloud cache URL to your FiveM server.cfg.

2

Players download resources through sCloud when they connect.

3

Repeated downloads are served from cache instead of your server.

FiveM Cache FAQ

What is a FiveM cache proxy?

A FiveM cache proxy sits between your players and your FiveM server's resource files. Players download through sCloud, and sCloud serves cached files when possible so your origin server is only used when needed.

Is this different from sCloud CDN?

Yes. sCloud CDN is for uploaded media files like inventory images, phone photos, videos, and public asset URLs. sCloud FiveM Cache is a proxy for FiveM resource downloads when players connect.

Do I need to upload my resources manually?

No manual resource upload is required. The cache works as a proxy and fetches resources from your FiveM origin when there is a cache miss.

What happens when I update a resource?

When resources change, you can purge the cache so players receive the latest files instead of an older cached copy.

Can I purge the cache?

Yes. Every plan includes instant cache purge, so you can clear cached resources after updates or fixes.

What is cache preload?

Cache preload prepares selected resources in the cache before players connect, which helps reduce the first-download load after updates.

Does it work with ESX, QBCore, Qbox and custom frameworks?

It should work regardless of FiveM framework because it operates at the resource download and cache layer, not inside your gameplay framework.

Is there a free plan?

No. sCloud FiveM Cache does not have a free forever plan. The Solo plan includes a 7-day free trial.

How does the 7-day trial work?

The Solo plan includes a 7-day trial so you can test the cache on one FiveM server before paying monthly.
