What is Varnish?

October 9th 2007

I stumbled upon the Varnish project. I read through the material and I like what I read. HTTP Accelerator. Varnish is a state-of-the-art, high-performance HTTP accelerator. Varnish is targeted primarily at the FreeBSD 6 and Linux 2.6 platforms, and will take full advantage of the virtual memory system and advanced I/O features offered by these operating systems.

But I am left with one simpel question. What does it do?
