#2What's the deal with Antirez and PHK refusing to add TLS support?
Re: Vinyl Cache and Varnish Cache
#3This is the first I've actually heard of the name change... I used to use Varnish quite a bit, and had a decent grasp of VCL, for Drupal deployments. But I think Varnish 6 or 7 was when I started dropping off managing the caching layer as almost every project chose to offload caching to Cloudflare.

#4Did not know this had happened, but does seem PHK (the original author of Varnish) is now with of the Vinyl Cache project, so this is not just a typical fork.

#5I appreciate the mysql/mariadb comparison.

Varnish Enterprise has https support.

#7What's the deal with Antirez and PHK refusing to add TLS support?
I'm not "refusing to add TLS support" I insist that the certificate is safely isolated in a separate process for security reasons. There are many ways to skin that cat.

Varnish Enterprise has https support.
the whole point of varnish software keeping a public version of "vinyl cache" as "varnish cache" with TLS is to give people a way to access a FOSS version with native TLS.
I think TLS is table-stakes now, and has been for the last 10 years, at least.

Terminate tls and you have your cache.
Re: Vinyl Cache and Varnish Cache
#10This is helpful, but it is yet to be seen how downstream picks it up. Wikidata[0] has renamed it and marked the Vinyl repo as the preferred one. Gentoo[1] renamed the package and switched to Vinyl. Homebrew[2] is now tracking Varnish Software (downstream of Vinyl). Fedora[3] has switched to Varnish Software as well. At endoflife.date[5], we renamed to vinyl and switched tracking as well. Wikipedia[6] has renamed Varnish (Software) -> Vinyl Cache.
