摘要
Web resource caching technology is used to make Web scalable and to improve computer performance. It can reduce network latencies, bandwidth demands and Web server loads. A web cache stores web resources in anticipation of future requests, resulting from the nonuniformity of web object sizes, retrieval costs, and cacheability. Caching is performed in various locations throughpout the web including two end points known to a typical user- web browser and web server. Caching helps bridge the performance gap between local activity and remote content. Caching helps to improve web performance by reducing the cost and the end user latency for web access.
