I'm wondering if I can use the Apache Traffic Server as a Video cache and if so: 1. Can it forward the video while caching it?
Yes. As long as the request is not a Range: request (we don't cache Range requests).
Range requests into a cached, large objects is still poor performance too. This generally makes ATS a poor cache choice at this point for large Video's (most players will use Range requests for positioning). We really have to fix this (there's a Jira bug for it, the infamous TS-475.
2. Can it handles the video other than as an object (like image caching)
Note sure what that means. :)
