Abstract :
In this paper is considered a solution which involves the use of proxy servers for caching a web content of dynamic website on oveloaded physical web server. It was applied Varnish HTTP (hypertext transfer protocol) server designed to relieve and accelerate demanding dynamic websites. Unlike a proxy server such as Squid, which is designed to perform caching on the client side or softwares Apache and Nginx, which are primarily web servers, this is designed exclusively to accelerate HTTP data. Production server as a physical server is taken ExitFest. Executed tests and analysis of results show clearly increase the number of concurent sessions availability of web sites by 100%, then reduce the response time for pages over 90% and increase the capacity of data transfer over 90%.
