Paper Abstract:
|
The Internet has been experiencing a phenomenal growth in the past decade. The World Wide Web has also been growing at the same rate. Web traffic comprises two thirds of all the activity on the Internet. The growth is in terms of increasing numbers of servers, and increasing numbers of users that want to access the huge amounts of information distributed at vast geographical sites. Therefore, it was necessary to implement cache systems (e.g., distributed or hierarchical) to reduce network bandwidth demand, reduce latency, and move data near clients to improve performance. This paper provides a comparison study of thirteen different cache systems implemented on the Internet. We discuss goals, advantages and the main issues related to the design of each cache system. |
