sample.server.com:

proxy_cache_path /path/to/cache levels=1:2 keys_zone=STATIC:10m
inactive=1h;

server {

location /static/ {
proxy_pass http://sample.static.com;
proxy_cache STATIC;
proxy_cache_valid 1d;
proxy_cache_use_stale error timeout invalid_header updating;
}

sample.static.com:

server {

location /static/ {
root /path/to/files;
}
