Apache Traffic Server

Apache Traffic Server is a fast, scalable and extensible HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2.0 compliant caching proxy server.

Pros

    Azure Application Gateway

    Azure Application Gateway is a web traffic load balancer that enables you to manage traffic to your web applications. Unlike traditional load balancers that operate at the transport layer (Layer 4), Application Gateway operates at the application layer (Layer 7), allowing it to make routing decisions based on attributes such as URL paths and host headers. This capability provides more control over how traffic is distributed to your applications, enhancing both performance and security.
