Coral is peer-to-peer content distribution network. It allows a user to run a 
web site that offers high performance and meets huge demand, all for the 
price of a $50/month cable modem. Sites that volunteer to run Coral 
automatically replicate content as a side effect of users accessing it. 
Publishing through Coral is as simple as appending a short string to the 
hostname of objects' URLs; a peer-to-peer DNS layer transparently redirects 
browsers to participating cache nodes, which in turn cooperate to minimize 
load on the source web server. Using modern peer-to-peer indexing techniques, 
Coral will efficiently find a cached object if it exists anywhere in the 
network, requiring that it use the origin server only to initially fetch the 
object once.
