Introduction to Dispatcher introduction-dispatcher

Dispatcher is Adobe Experience Manager’s caching, or load-balancing, or both, tool. Using AEM’s Dispatcher also helps to protect your AEM server from attack. Therefore, you can increase the security of your AEM instance by using the Dispatcher with an enterprise-class web server.

NOTE
The most common use of Dispatcher is to cache responses from an AEM publish instance, to increase the responsiveness and security of your externally facing published website.

See Dispatcher Overview to learn how Dispatcher performs caching, returns documents and performs Load Balancing.
