When data is cached, it's stored locally for quicker access if what's stored at its origin has not been changed. The most common example of this is browser cache. If you visit a page that updates daily or multiple times a day such as at a news site, it will have to download fully every time it's accessed. If you visit a site that doesn't change anything between visits, then as long as the page's content is still saved in the cache it will load much quicker.

What is the cache memory used for?
Cache is a high speed buffer memory for storing automatically small areas of frequently used memory, so that the machine does not have to wait for the full memory access time every time it needs to access the data in those areas.Most computers have separate but similar cache memories for data and instructions. This allows the same access time advantages for both, but as data and instructions are usually in different places in memory eliminates any conflicts in usage.Some computers have multiple levels of different speed cache with different sizes. These are typically referred to as L1 cache, L2 cache, L3 cache, etc. with L1 being the fastest, most expensive, smallest size cache closest to the processor; the others are successively closer to the main memory.
