Varnish Software is the company behind Varnish Cache, a widely trusted open source web accelerator that significantly enhances web performance for businesses online.

“Varnish Software is happy to be included in Forrester–s –CDN and Digital Performance Vendor Landscape, Q3 2015– report,” said Per Buer, CTO and Founder of Varnish Software. “We believe that this is a valuable resource for AD&D professionals whether they are seeking to find a new CDN vendor or simply wish to benchmark an existing provider with the leaders in this market.”
Varnish also recently introduced the Varnish API Engine, a tool for webscale API initiatives that allows management of all APIs through one central point. Varnish API Engine–s core functionality is to authorize access to a website–s APIs after authenticating the client requesting access.

Varnish Software delivers the world–s most widely used HTTP accelerator based on open source. Originally developed in 2006, Varnish Cache has since spread to 2.2 million websites worldwide. It is currently used by some of the world–s most influential websites such as The New York Times, gov.uk, Pinterest, The BBC, The White House, Transport for London, Vimeo, hillaryclinton.com and many more.
