A Comparative Study of Alternative Middle Tier Caching Solutions to Support Dynamic Web Content Acceleration

摘要

As e-business sites increasingly adopt dynamic page generation technologies, web and application server scalability is significantly reduced because of the additional load placed on these servers. In response to this problem of dynamic page generation latency, we have developed a Dynamic Content Accelerator. This fragment-level caching solution, combined with intelligent cache management strategies, can significantly reduce the processing load on the web/application server, allowing the server to handle higher user loads. Our performance results indicate that our solution significantly outperforms existing middle tier caching solutions.
