             Summary: GSOC: Varnish Cache support in Apache Traffic Control
                 Key: COMDEV-394
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMDEV-394
             Project: Community Development
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: GSoC/Mentoring ideas
            Reporter: Eric Friedrich


*Background*
Apache Traffic Control is a Content Delivery Network (CDN) control plane for 
large scale content distribution.

Traffic Control currently requires Apache Traffic Server as the underlying 
cache. Help us expand the scope by integrating with the very popular Varnish 
Cache.

There are multiple aspects to this project:
- Configuration Generation: Write software to build Varnish configuration files 
(VCL). This code will be implemented in our Traffic Ops and cache client side 
utilities, both written in Go.

- Health Monitoring: Implement monitoring of the Varnish cache health and 
performance. This code will run both in the Traffic Monitor component and 
within Varnish. Traffic Monitor is written in Go and Varnish is written in C.

- Testing: Adding automated tests for new code

*Skills:*
- Proficiency in Go is required
- A basic knowledge of HTTP and caching is preferred, but not required for this 
project.
