ApacheCon 2016

In recent years, Apache Traffic Server (ATS) has emerged as the preferred choice for the caching proxy in large scale CDNs. The Traffic Control open source project is a CDN control plane that manages multi tier, large scale CDN configurations based on ATS. Traffic Control not only manages thousands of ATS caches, but it creates a cohesive CDN from them, adding health monitoring, content and location aware client routing and all other CDN functions needed to deliver HTTP content at extreme scale. In this talk we will use real life experiences from large scale operators to describe how Traffic Control can help you run ATS server farms with dozens of petabytes of storage and multiple terabits per second edge output.
