[mapserver-users] Question about Mapserver, WMS and Mapcache

[boesiii]

I am developing a mapping application using Openlayers, Mapserver and
Mapcache and I am trying to understand all the terminology.  Mapserver
without any WMS parameters in the MAP file will return an image based on the
url request.  Mapserver becomes a WMS server when you add the necessary WMS
parameters in the MAP file and will return an image similar to a plain
Mapserver setup.  When Mapcache is added to the mix, it can generate image
tiles and serve those tiles to users as needed.  What is the quickest way to
serve image tiles using Mapserver?  The image tiles will act as a custom
background which displays buildings, roads, road names, parcel boundaries,
and contours.
