Type

Caching solution
Load balancer

About

Apache Traffic Server is an open-source high-performance HTTP caching proxy server that serves cached content at the network edge to reduce origin load and improve response times.

It provides an event-driven core with asynchronous native DNS for high concurrency, and supports custom plugins written in C/C++ or Lua for modifying headers, inspecting caches, handling Edge Side Includes, and implementing custom caching algorithms.

AWS Elastic Load Balancer automatically distributes incoming traffic across multiple targets, such as EC2 instances, containers, and IP addresses.
