# FileCache.config

**Applies to:** Customer's Canvas On-Premises; Design Editor 5.35.9, 5.x (may differ) · **Archived documentation**
 
The `~/Configuration/FileCache.config` file allows you to configure the cache of Customer's Canvas.
 
The following snippet shows parameters of the Customer's Canvas cache, which you can set up in either the **Aurigma.DesignAtoms.FileCacheConfiguration** section of `Web.config` or the separate `~/Configuration/FileCache.config` file, with their default values.
 
```xml
<configuration>
    <configSections>
        <section name="Aurigma.DesignAtoms.FileCacheConfiguration"
        type="System.Configuration.NameValueSectionHandler, System, Version=1.0.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" />
    </configSections>
    <Aurigma.DesignAtoms.FileCacheConfiguration>
        <add key="MaxSize" value="4294967296" />
        <add key="CleanUpInterval" value="1800" />
        <add key="MaxUtilizationThreshold" value="95" />
        <add key="UtilizationTarget" value="70" />
        <add key="RootPath" value="~/App_Data/FileCache" />
    </Aurigma.DesignAtoms.FileCacheConfiguration>
