Relais: cooperative caches for the World-Wide Web
The Relais project aims at improving the quality of service of the Web by using caching and mirroring techniques.
The Relais cooperative caching protocol
The Relais protocol allows a group of caches distributed world-wide to cooperate in order to improve Web performances, while reducing Internet traffic as well as the servers' load. Relais guarantees to its clients a monotonic and rapid progress on the documents' versions. Once a cache learns that some document is stale, Relais takes care of the refreshment of all partners caching this document. For performance reasons, actions required to enforce consistency are performed in background. Relais efficiently locates documents. This requires only an access to a local directory. Finally, Relais has been prototyped on top of Squid. A release of Relais has been in daily use by our group since January 1997.
