Set a Cache Duration
Some cloud data warehouses (CDW) have a query results cache that Sigma can use to retrieve query results without incurring additional compute costs. This leads to better performance.
Sigma workbooks have a cache duration setting, or time to live (TTL), which refers to the duration of time that Sigma will try to retrieve query results from the results cache before sending the query to the warehouse for a new result to be computed.
The default duration is 10 minutes.
