Oracle Web Cache tracking and usage
About Oracle Web Cache
Oracle Web Cache is a technology that enables its users to overcome the common performance issues encountered in websites. It works to eliminate the presence of slow responses and system failures. Oracle Web Cache is mainly used as a server accelerator for websites that function on Oracle8i and Oracle9i Application Server. Oracle Web Cache comes with a basic infrastructure that ensures proper caching of content for users. It allows HTTP requests and functions as a virtual server. It also helps to retrieve newer content with ease. Oracle Web Cache is recognized as a cost-effective option and is preferred for its high degree of availability and patent-pending capacity heuristic.
Frequently asked
What is Oracle Web Cache?›
Oracle Web Cache is a content-aware server accelerator with reverse proxy functionality for Oracle Fusion Middleware. It improves the performance, scalability, and availability of websites by caching frequently accessed content, thus reducing the load on the origin server and increasing processing capacity for other requests.
Which types of content can be cached by Oracle Web Cache?›
Oracle Web Cache can cache both static and dynamically generated content, including HTML, XML, CSS, JavaScript, images, and other web objects. It efficiently caches content that changes infrequently or has a pattern of reuse among multiple users.
How does Oracle Web Cache ensure content freshness?›
Oracle Web Cache ensures that users receive fresh content by using cacheability rules defined in the Web Cache Manager. These rules specify cache timeouts, invalidation mechanisms, and other attributes. Additionally, the origin server can use HTTP cache control headers to specify an object’s freshness or whether it should be cached.
Can Oracle Web Cache be integrated with other Oracle Fusion Middleware components?›
Yes, Oracle Web Cache can be seamlessly integrated with other Oracle Fusion Middleware components, such as Oracle Application Server, Oracle SOA Suite, and Oracle Identity Management, providing a comprehensive solution for performance optimization, security, and scalability.
What are the benefits of using Oracle Web Cache?›
Oracle Web Cache provides several benefits, including improved application performance, reduced server load, and increased site availability. By caching frequently accessed content, it reduces response times for users and enables servers to process a higher volume of requests. Additionally, Oracle Web Cache's reverse proxy functionality helps protect against unauthorized access, ensuring a secure browsing experience for users.
