Content Cache Operator

A Juju charm for deploying and managing a content cache.

Overview

A service for caching content, built on top of Nginx, configurable to cache any http or https web site. Tuning options include cache storage size, maximum request size to cache and cache validity duration.

This service was developed to provide front-end caching for web sites run by Canonical's IS team, and to reduce the need for third-party CDNs by providing high-bandwidth access to web sites via this caching front-end. Currently used for a number of services including the Snap Store, the majority of Canonical's web properties including ubuntu.com and canonical.com, and Ubuntu Extended Security Maintenance.

This Kubernetes-based version is built using the same approach as the machine content-cache charm, and can be used as a front-end caching service in a situation where your Kubernetes cluster and its ingress controllers have a fast connection to the Internet.

Project and community

The Content-cache-k8s Operator is a member of the Ubuntu family. It's an open source project that warmly welcomes community projects, contributions, suggestions, fixes and constructive feedback.
