table_spanitem("Replicating Web documents at a worldwide scale can
help reduce
user-perceived latency and wide-area network traffic. This paper
presents the design and implementation of Globule, a platform that
allows Web server administrators to organize a decentralized
replication service by trading Web hosting resources with each
other. Globule automates all aspects of such replication: document
replication, selection of the most appropriate replication
strategies on a per-document basis, consistency management and
transparent redirection of clients to replicas. To facilitate the
transition from a non-replicated server to a replicated one, we
designed Globule as a module for the Apache Web server. Therefore,
converting Web documents should require no more than compiling a new
module into Apache and editing a configuration file.");
