This package provides the Apache Traffic Server, a fast, scalable reverse proxy server which may operate as forward proxy as well. Apache Traffic Server supports:

* Caching: improve response time while reducing server load and bandwidth needs by caching and reusing frequently-requested web pages, images, and web service calls. * Proxying: add keep-alive, filter or anonymize content requests, or add load balancing by adding a proxy layer. * Scaling: handle 10s of thousands of requests per second on modern SMP hardware. * Extensions: use the API to do anything from modifying HTTP headers to handling ESI requests to writing your own cache algorithm.
