Overview
Traffic Server is a fast, scalable and extensible HTTP/1.1 compliant caching proxy server. It was formerly a commercial product created by Inktomi and later aquired by Yahoo! in 2002. Yahoo! has been maintaining the source until it's open source release in August 2009.
Today Traffic Server is an Official Apache Top Level Project.
Ostatic.com featured an article and overview about Traffic Server written by 'The Yahoo Cloud Computing Team'.
