Does anyone know alternatives to GeoWebCache (GWC)?

There’s TileCache, but it seems to be “dead” in terms of no more development taking place. In addition to that i can’t figure out how to cache a protected WMS with TIleCache (basic auth).

    TileCache isn’t dead: it works great and has an active mailing list. (I’d call it “mature”.)

    To use TileCache with a protected WMS, look at these two references on the mailing list:

    • patch allowing the TileCache client to make authenticated requests
    • discussion of how to authenticate requests to a TileCache server (if you have content you want to protect)
