Does Discoverer support OracleAS Web Cache?
Yes. OracleAS Web Cache is a content aware server accelerator (or reverse proxy server) and improves the performance, availability, and scalability of web sites that run on OracleAS. Discoverer is integrated with OracleAS Web Cache. OracleAS Web Cache ships with a number of predefined cacheability rules that can improve Discoverer Viewer’s overall scalability, performance, and availability. Because of this integration the load on mid-tier and database servers in OracleAS Discoverer installations is reduced. You can use OracleAS Web Cache Manager to configure load balancing for OracleAS Discoverer across multiple machines. This speeds up the response to generate the most common requests, such as lists of workbooks, or frequently queried result sets. You can also use OracleAS Web Cache as a router to balance the load across all available application servers. For more information refer to the “OracleAS Discoverer Configuration Guide” version 9.0.
