Features and Benefits
|
|
Server Administration
|
- Allows control over virtual servers, quick access to tasks, and integrated cluster management from a browser or a command-line
- The command-line interface is comprehensive, secure, scriptable and remotely operated
- Most administration tasks can be applied without requiring processes to restart
|
|
|
Versatile Pattern Matching
|
Provides versatile processing of requests based on patterns, numerous environment variables, masking of complex application URIs, and simple mass hosting.
|
|
|
Java Container and Session Failover
|
- A high-performance, in-process Java container provides a Java EE 5 compliant implementation of Java Servlets 2.5, JSP 2.1 and more
- The Java container offers lightweight session replication and failover via in-memory, secure persistence within a cluster
|
|
|
WebDAV File Management
|
Allows easy management and publishing of content using industry standard tools
|
|
|
HTTP Compression
|
- Enables administrators to conserve bandwidth and improve web site performance
- Responses can be compressed based on MIME type, path, User-Agent, and more
- Frequently accessed stated content can be automatically pre-compressed to ease system load
|
|
|
Virtual Server Support
|
- Thousands of domains can be served from a single Java System Web Server
- Each virtual server can have its own IP address, port, document root, log files, and more
- Extensive virtualization allows efficient mass-hosting of many domains with extensive customization of each domain
|
|
|
Protection from Common Threats
|
- Built-in sed filters allow developers and administrators to use familiar syntax to modify requests and responses
- This provides protection from common attacks, including Cross Site Scripting (XSS) and Database Injection
- Also provides protection from distributed attacks by providing request mapping for both URIs and IP
|
|
|
Data Encryption and Security
|
- Resources can be secured with advanced Access Control Lists (ACLs), built-in LDAP with flexible schema support, SSL v2 & v3, TLS 1.0 and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC)
- SSL key sizes up to 4k can be used, and self-signed certificates can be easily generated
- Integration with Solaris 10 Cryptographic Framework allows use of capabilities such as the Niagara Cryptographic Framework (NCP)
- Dynamic updating of CRLs allows PKI management to be combined with high service-availability requirements
|
|
|
Integrated Reverse Proxy
|
Allows Web Server to act as the HTTP endpoint between any User-Agent and HTTP origin server.
|
|
|
FastCGI Support
|
- Provides an efficient way to use third-party technologies in an out-of-process configuration
-
FastCGI is commonly used to execute third-party code without incurring a significant performance penalty or sacrificing server stability
|
|
|
Built-in search engine
|
The built-in search engine allows the easy indexing and searching of locally stored common document types.
|
|
|
64-bit support
|
Allows Web Server to take full advantage of the resources available from modern server environments, including a 64-bit Java container, an in-process file cache that can take advantage of all the RAM available, and SSL optimizations.
