Explanation
BranchCache is a Windows Server/client feature designed to reduce WAN bandwidth consumption for branch offices. When users in a branch office request content (files, web pages, BITS transfers) from a headquarters server over a slow WAN link, BranchCache caches that content either on a local server (hosted cache mode) or on other branch PCs (distributed cache mode). Subsequent requests for the same content are served locally. A swap partition (B) is virtual memory, not remote data caching. Domain access (C) is about authentication. A proxy server (D) can cache web content but is not the Windows OS technology specifically described here for WAN optimization of file shares.
