Overview
Squid Easy Caching Proxy Server is a modular, high-performance reverse proxy and forward proxy server, generally comparable to Nginx and Apache Traffic Server. Generally, it is a caching proxy for the Web supporting HTTP and HTTPS. It does also support the protocols FTP, Gopher, SSL, and WAIS.
This Squid Image is specially pre-configured to allow you to save on bandwidth through content caching. This is a performance optimization mechanism in which data is delivered from the closest servers for optimal application performance. It reduces the total system load and increases the chances to find an object already existing in the local network.
Additionally, Squid offers rich access control, authorization, and logging environment to develop web proxy and content serving applications. As well as a rich set of traffic optimization options, most of which are enabled by default for simpler installation and high performance.
