Save money on internet bandwidth
OctaGate Switch compresses data before it is sent to the browser. Some formats, like
XML, ASP, JSP, DHTML and HTML can be compressed
by as much as 90%! For most web applications, this reduces the bandwidth needed
by about 30%! If your application is very text intensive, the savings can be
much greater.
For pure HTML pages the download time can be reduced 90%. If you're thinking
about upgrading your internet cable to support the load, try OctaGate Switch instead!
Stand Alone HTTP Compression
If the CPU load of your web server is light, then OctaGate Switch doesn't need a separate
computer! But if the CPU of your web server is loaded, you can place OctaGate
Switch with HTTP Compression on a separate computer. If you don't use HTTP Compression,
you won't need a separate computer, even if the CPU is loaded. This is because
OctaGate Switch without HTTP Compression uses very little CPU.
You can combine http compression with the various other features present in OctaGate Switch, like SSL/HTTPS and HTTP Load Balancing.
