Squid network cache

SQUID

Squid is a high-performance proxy caching server for web clients. Squid can reduce access time as well as bandwidth consumption. Instead of retrieving objects (webpages, images etc) from the actual site squid can cache (store) copies of this information. When a request for information is made the objects can be retrieved from squid instead of contacting the actual website (using up bandwidth and your precious time!)

In addition, Squid can accelerate your slow web services so that you can serve more users and give them better overal experiences.

There are different levels of integrating the web accelerator using age of content and using patterns to cache intelligently. Squid is a ultimate tool to manage your overwhelmed web site or network.
