Caching Enhancements: Next.js 14 introduces several caching
strategies, including request memoization, data caching,
full route caching, and router caching.
These strategies help reduce load times and server pressure
by storing and reusing fetched data efficiently.

Revalidation patterns: Revalidation is the process of purging
the Data Cache and re-fetching the latest data. This is useful when your
data changes and you want to ensure you show the latest information.
revalidateTag(tag: string): void; allows you to purge cached data on-demand
for a specific cache tag.
revalidatePath(path: string, type?: 'page' | 'layout'): void;
allows you to purge cached data on-demand for a specific path.
fetch('https://...', { next: { revalidate: 3600 } }):
revalidate fetched data at interval measured in seconds.
