Lesson Summary
Overview
  • Oracle9iAS Web Cache and Database Cache dramatically speed up access to Web site data.
  • Web Cache reduces HTTP server and back-end processing by responding to requests with cached pages.
  • Web Cache uses customizable caching rules to validate cached pages before responding to requests.
  • Web Cache can cache static, dynamic, and partial pages by using ESI tags to assemble page elements.
  • Web Cache can serve stale content during traffic spikes, ensuring Web site performance.
  • A single Web Cache server can be installed at remote locations instead of a costly mirroring infrastructure.
  • Oracle9iAS Database Cache reduces database processing by responding to requests with data cached in the middle tier.
  • Database Cache can also connect to non-Oracle databases using Oracle Transparent Gateways.
