Varnish Support in Traffic Control
Hi everyone I wanted to discuss adding support for Varnish to be used as a cache server in Traffic Control as another option besides Traffic Server. Varnish Cache offers great performance, robustness and modularity and is widely used. The changes with this project should not affect existing components but will be implemented separately. The aim is to have the same functionality of the configuration generated for Traffic Server generated for Varnish to operate somewhat similarly. The Blueprint link for more details about the changes: https://github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/pull/7620 Also, this is part of this year's Google Summer of Code project. So, a timeline for some of the changes is documented here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UU8b5kIqzhtGpb6GpwoIBwFcMxc4pa1DAAXHlEO171Y/edit?usp=sharing Since the changes do not fit in a GSoC project only parts of it will be implemented during GSoC and the goal is to finish with a proof of concept of Varnish working as a cacher server. Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions regarding the timeline or if I should focus on some parts of the changes for GSoC. Thanks! Abdulrahman
