Market leader by size
The leading Caching system shifts with company size: among UK Advanced Manufacturing with under 10 employees, LiteSpeed Cache leads at 41.8% of the 1,667 with a detectable system; among UK Advanced Manufacturing with 10–50 employees, LiteSpeed Cache leads at 42.6% of the 975 with a detectable system; and among UK Advanced Manufacturing with over 50 employees, LiteSpeed Cache leads at 38.6% of the 145 with a detectable system.
Under 10 employees
41.8% of band
Under 10 employees contains 1,667 companies and is shaped by smaller manufacturing websites. LiteSpeed Cache leads with 41.8%, with the other 11 detected systems dividing the rest of the band.
10–50 employees
42.6% of band
10–50 employees covers 975 companies and keeps much the same top-of-market pattern. LiteSpeed Cache leads with 42.6%, so mid-sized advanced manufacturers do not show a different category winner.
Over 50 employees
38.6% of band
Over 50 employees is a smaller slice at 145 companies. LiteSpeed Cache still leads with 38.6%, but its lower share than in the two smaller bands points to a slightly more distributed mix.
How Caching usage is detected
Company data
Detected companies are joined to UK Companies House records and XBRL accounts data. Revenue and headcount figures come from the most recent filed accounts; where the company has not filed, values are estimated using a model trained on filed history and peer benchmarks and are labelled as estimates.
Detection
Firmbase crawls the public website of actively-trading UK companies and fingerprints the technologies present: tracking scripts, embedded forms, chat widgets, CMS markers and similar signatures. A company is included in this list when one or more of the technology's signatures are found on its site; closely-related variants of the same product are grouped under one name. Detection covers what is visible on the public web — a company using the technology purely internally, with no website footprint, will not appear. Counts are therefore a conservative floor, not a ceiling.
Freshness
Websites are re-crawled on a rolling basis and the underlying company data is refreshed from Companies House continuously; filings appear within days of submission. The list and its statistics are regenerated when the detected cohort moves meaningfully. You can see the last-updated timestamp near the top of the page.
