CirruxCache provides a software solution to dynamically cache HTTP objects on Google Appengine (using the Datastore and the Memcache services).

This application implements several features usually provided by professional CDN solutions, such as:

• honor Cache-Control
• cache TTL override
• several POP (Point Of Presence) configuration mapped on custom base-url
• ignore query string
• POST forwarding
• garbage collection of expired entries
• extensibility (develops your own WebServices on top)
• allow object flushing from restricted IP
• configure a POP (Point of Presence) according to a virtual host
• several behaviors (cache, redirect, forward)
• storage WebService (store big files <=2GB in order to be delivered)
• admin panel (flush objects, manage big files, statistics, config helper)
• image transformation (before caching it)

CirruxCache speeds up any HTTP based application (such as dynamic websites or web-services).

This application was used as a CDN front in production conditions at Zoomorama.
