<div dir="ltr"><div>(dubbing this over from the mod_auth thread for relevance due to my mistake earlier)</div><div><br></div>Out of curiosity, has anyone done a CDN of Varnish servers? I have 4 Varnish servers in different datacenters around the world, and use anycast IPs to direct traffic based on the region. I managed to do cache replication using a "fanout" method for new cache hits to be replicated through an intermediary server to the related group of Varnish servers, but was wondering if anyone had a better method of load balancing with cache replication.<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Mar 17, 2017 at 8:47 AM, Rodney Bizzell <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:rbizzell@measinc.com" target="_blank">rbizzell@measinc.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
