Change the location of the cache folder NextJS

Question

currently the cache folder is inside "./.next/cache" I wonder if it is possible for me to change the location of this cache folder.

The reason I do this: I am working on an application with large numbers of daily accesses, and I am going to upload more than one application from my FrontEnd. Ideally, all of these applications should share the same cache folder

It doesn't seem to be possible at this stage.

Edit: From one of the contributors

Can you solve this by symlinking you CI's cache sub folder to .next/cache? An option you are suggesting may be a source of many bugs and questions, hence is generally undesired.

In my case symlinking worked well.
