It depends on the nature of the data. It can be beneficial to cache any data that changes significantly less frequently than the typical interval between requests for those data. You might also want to cache things that are expensive to compute/retrieve, even if the cached version will often be a little stale. For example, if you are displaying a Twitter feed, you might want to cache the feed for 15-30 minutes so you don't have to do a slow HTTP request to a third-party API on every request.
