Overview

Vinyl Cache is a high performance HTTP reverse proxy and caching accelerator. It sits in front of your web origin and serves cached responses from memory at very high speed, cutting origin load and latency. Caching behaviour is controlled with a flexible configuration language, so you decide exactly what to cache, for how long, and how requests and responses are transformed.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg ships Vinyl Cache hardened and fully patched, secure by default: the management interface binds to loopback only and is protected by a per VM secret generated on first boot, never a baked default, while only the cache port is public. The image ships pointed at a bundled demo origin so it caches out of the box, first boot records the endpoint and the exact command to point the cache at your own origin, and a paired deploy guide plus 24/7 support come with every image.

Common uses

  • Accelerate a web site or API by caching origin responses
  • Reduce origin server load and bandwidth costs
  • Front an application with a programmable HTTP cache
