mirror site
REPLICA OF A WEBSITE WITH A DIFFERENT URL
Mirror site (2004); Web mirror; Mirror sites; Website mirror; Website mirroring; Mirror website; Mirror (website); Partial mirror
<networking> An archive site or website which keeps a
copy of some or all files at another site so as to make them
more quickly available and to reduce the load on the source
site.
It is generally best to use the mirror that is physically
closest to you as this will usually give the fastest download.
Such mirroring is usually done for specific whole directories
or files on a specific remote server as opposed to a cache
or proxy server which keeps copies of everything that is
requested via it.
For example, src.doc.ic.ac.uk is the main UK mirror for the
GNU archive at gnu.org.

2. As of Thursday, a mirror site, AllofMP3.ru, and a copycat site, Mp3sparks.com, where the users of AllofMP3.com were redirected, did not work.
3. AllofMP3.com itself would not load Sunday, while visitors to AllofMP3.ru, a mirror site, were greeted with a no–entry sign and a note saying, "We are sorry but the server is closed for maintenance." Irina Zubareva, head of Interior Ministry‘s computer crimes division "K," which began investigating AllofMP3.com in 2005, refused to say whether the closures were part of a concerted government effort against online music piracy.
