A Web cache sits between one or more Web servers and a client or many clients, and watches requests come by, saving copies of the responses — like HTML pages, images and files — for itself. Then, if there is another request for the same URL, it can use the response that it has, instead of asking the origin server for it again.

And also, Web Caching can reduce network traffic, because representations are reused, it reduces the amount of bandwidth used by a client.

FX Archive Weekend Project: Host Your Own Web Services One of the great things about the web today is that you can choose from hundreds of services that will host your blogs, lifestreams, photos, videos, and music. One disadvantage of this, however, is that you typically have very little control over the actual experience. You can't, for example, make changes to themes on Wordpress.com or customize the way your pictures are shown on Flickr. However, thanks to a large number of open source projects, you could do all of this if you hosted your own blog, photo gallery, or mixtape service. In this post, we will show you how to do that and which services we like to run on our own domains. A lot of you probably already host your own blogs and know how to register a domain and transfer files with FTP. Tools and Information to Get Started Obviously, to tackle these projects, you will need a few tools and some space on a server to host your projects. Hosting You will need some space on a server and your own domain name if you don't have one already.
