CacheRight for IIS Acceleration: Speed and Bandwidth Conservation





CacheRight 3.0 for IIS 4/5/6
Powerful Cache Control Management for Speed and Availability

A 304 Not Modified response is a waste of time. Why should repeat Web visitors request the same content over and over when it can be cached and accessed faster from a local browser or proxy cache? CacheRight allows developers to easily craft and administer effective cache control policies for every Web site resource through a single rules file -- dramatically speeding up sites, reducing bandwidth consumption, and eliminating unnecessary requests and server strain. Administrators avoid developing cache control rules in a one-off fashion via IIS, and faster pages mean happier customers and more productive corporate users.


How CacheRight Works:

CacheRight for IIS Acceleration

Which Fortune 1000 sites use cache control? Check out Port80's survey.

Cache control for many developers is limited to using the META tag. Unfortunately, this technique is time consuming, fails to leverage proxy caches, works poorly for HTML files, and does nothing at all for the most cache-worthy items in a site -- images! With CacheRight, a simple configuration rules file in the Web site's home directory enables developers to set up rules that control expiration by file location or file type. Unchanging images, PDFs, Flash, multimedia files and other page elements are delivered crisply from the repeat user's browser cache. Dynamic content is served guaranteed fresh, without competing with validation requests and static content for precious server cycles and bandwidth.

Affordable, powerful cache control will improve the performance of your site -- and save you money at the same time! How many 304 Not Modified responses are in your server logs? Avoid this waste, start caching the right way today with CacheRight, and then add even more IIS performance optimization with httpZip and w3compiler.
