As I understand your question to keep your data up-to-date, consider regularly fetching from the server or setting up subscriptions on both the server and client. This allows you to send new events when data changes, enabling clients to subscribe and update their caches in real-time.

if you just need caching on the server with apollo, you can refer this documentation https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-server/performance/cache-backends/
