The mentioned ‘aws hosted webservice’ on my email is a
stir shaken +
call fraud scoring + ecnam service, no possible cache there.
Actually the diameter section is not cacheable either (leads to false
positives) I just tested and mentioned it with the intention to
graphic the concept of ‘delete the wait’ (if possible)
Sometimes caching is not possible at all. And the price (as we pay)
is to assign resources and watch it being occupied waiting. Trust me,
9000 caps made me try a lot of paths

I understand the idea behind using cache facilities, however in
this case, being a ST/SH attestation service, all calls need to be
attested and the probability that multiple calls having src and dst
numbers identical is, IMHO, very reduced.
So I don't see how a caching system could be used here, hence why
HTTP is "a necessary evil".... unless i'm missing something
here....
