-
Navigate to the Blitz plugin settings in your Craft Control Panel.

Under the Cache Storage tab, set the storage type to "Yii Cache Storage".

Create a new bundle and deploy your changes.
Craft Commands #
Blitz provides loads of useful Craft commands for manipulating the data currently cached by your project.
To avoid serving stale data, it's often a good idea to refresh the cache whenever you deploy changes to your project. You can do this by adding Blitz's blitz/cache/refresh command as a Post Deploy Task in the "Build & Deploy" Project Settings page.
If you'd like to manually run a Blitz command, navigate to your project, then to the environment you'd like to run it in (e.g. Production or Staging), then to the "Commands" page. From there, scroll to "Run a Craft CLI Command" and execute the command.
