Open Source HTTP Accelerator
By admin on Aug 6, 2009 in open source
Varnish is a state-of-the-art, high-performance HTTP accelerator. It uses the advanced features in Linux 2.6, FreeBSD 6/7 and Solaris 10 to achieve its high performance.
Some of the features include
- A modern design
- VCL – a very flexible configuration language
- Load balancing with health checking of backends
- Partial support for ESI
- URL rewriting
- Graceful handling of “dead” backends
