Transients are a form of caching that happens on the server, instead of browser caching. It should be used to store any data that is expected to expire, or which can expire at any time. it should also never be assumed to be in the database, since they may not be stored there at all.
Three Components of Transients :
- Key: A small text to identify the organism.
- Value: A Php Variable
- Lifespan: Amount of time the organism is alive.
Transients are like cookies. Cookies are stored in the user’s browser whare as transients are stored in the WordPress Database, and can store different types of data, more secure, and easily programmable with the transients API.
