Description
Apache Traffic Server™ is a high-performance, scalable, and flexible caching proxy server that supports both HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 protocols. Originally developed as a commercial product, it was later contributed to the Apache Foundation by Yahoo!, and is now widely utilized by numerous prominent content delivery networks (CDNs) and content providers. By caching and reusing frequently accessed web pages, images, and web service calls, it enhances response times while minimizing server load and bandwidth consumption. The server is designed to efficiently scale on contemporary symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) hardware, capable of managing tens of thousands of requests each second. Users can easily implement features like keep-alive, content filtering or anonymization, and load balancing by integrating a proxy layer. Additionally, it offers APIs that allow for the development of custom plug-ins, enabling modifications to HTTP headers, managing Edge Side Includes (ESI) requests, or even creating unique caching algorithms. With its ability to process over 400TB of data daily at Yahoo! in both forward and reverse proxy configurations, Apache Traffic Server stands out as a robust and reliable solution for high-traffic environments. Its proven track record makes it an ideal choice for organizations looking to enhance their web infrastructure efficiency.
Description
Squid serves as a caching proxy for web traffic, accommodating protocols such as HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP among others. By caching commonly accessed web pages, it significantly decreases bandwidth usage and enhances response times. With its robust access control features, Squid functions effectively as a server accelerator. It is compatible with a range of operating systems, including Windows, and operates under the GNU GPL license. Many Internet service providers globally rely on Squid to optimize user web access. By streamlining the data flow between clients and servers, Squid not only boosts performance but also conserves bandwidth by storing frequently accessed content. Additionally, it has the capability to manage content requests through various routing methods, allowing for the construction of cache server hierarchies that maximize network efficiency. Numerous online platforms utilize Squid to substantially improve their content delivery processes. Ultimately, implementing Squid can lead to a notable reduction in server strain and an enhancement in the speed at which content is delivered to users. Its effectiveness in managing web traffic makes it an invaluable tool for both service providers and website owners alike.
