How to enable caching with Spring Data Rest?
The reasoning behind is that repository listing and search methods won't change once the application is up. Also if the data behind the rest API is changed only through rest API it does makes a case to enable caching data too.
I believe some level is caching happens in REST API framework and it would be ideal if the caching happens at the final response stage i.e., json response (to avoid the overhead of marshalling objects to json)
Thoughts/comments?

And since caching is not part of Spring Data JDBC and Spring Data JDBC repositories are just Spring Beans, you can combine it with any caching solution you like. The obvious choice is of course, Springs Caching abstraction behind which you can put any caching solution.
If we want to enable a cache mechanism in a Spring Boot application, we need to add cache dependency in the pom. xml file. It enables caching and configures a CacheManager.

The easiest way to implement this on the repository level is to use Spring's @Cacheable as it can be seen in the Spring Data JPA Examples project.
Another option is to leverage HTTP Caching using the Apache HTTPD settings or a Varnish for example.
