Next.js uses APIs like `generateMetadata` and `generateStaticParams` where you will need to use the same data fetched in the `page`.

If you are using `fetch`, requests are automatically [memoized](/docs/app/building-your-application/caching#request-memoization). This means you can safely call the same URL with the same options, and only one request will be made.
