Hello, We are currently in the process of evaluating a new http caching solution and on that list is Apache Traffic Server. We've been reading through the online documentation and have a pretty good feel for the product, however there is one item we are a little clear on. It seems that mapping rules always assume a one-to-one relationship from host to origin. We are interested in having multiple redundant origins behind a single host. In Varnish they call this a director, and I'm trying to understand what the equivalent in ATS would be.
We do understand that we could use a load balancer VIP as the origin to provide this functionality, however if possible we're looking to have the "Caching Servers" communicate directly with the origin providers, rather than routing through a VIP. Could someone point me at the appropriate documentation where this is described? Thanks
