Abstract. This document is aimed at those interested in the technical aspects of hosting content on the internet while designing for cacheability. It explains some of the concepts involved and describes the approach taken to use them in the deployment of the www.marspolarlander.com distributed Web site. After studying this document, the reader should: (i) realize the benefits gained from designing for cacheability, (ii) see why using distributed Web sites augments this, and (iii) understand how to do the above.
