Apache Traffic Server

Registered by Alf Hogemark

Apache Traffic Server™ software is a fast, scalable and extensible HTTP/1.1 compliant caching proxy server. Formerly a commercial product, Yahoo! donated it to the Apache Foundation, and it is now an Apache TLP.

Caching
Improve your response time, while reducing server load and bandwidth needs by caching and reusing frequently-requested web pages, images, and web service calls.

Proxying
Easily add keep-alive, filter or anonymize content requests, or add load balancing by adding a proxy layer.

Fast
Scales well on modern SMP hardware, handling 10s of thousands of requests per second.

Extensible
APIs to write your own plug-ins to do anything from modifying HTTP headers to handling ESI requests to writing your own cache algorithm.

Proven
Handling over 400TB a day at Yahoo! both as forward and reverse proxies, Apache Traffic Server is battle hardened.
