The idea of reverse proxies is sound and efficient. An HTTP/XML application can benefit greatly (in terms of scalability) from a reverse proxy setup if the application's URL sub-tree is architected so as to facilitate the use this cost-effective, simple, generic technology. The design work simply amounts to factoring the application's data (bits of info that change at the same time are grouped together) into HTTP entities (which just so happen to correspond to XML external entities and/or complete documents) and then to provide for those entities to be served up using HTTP message headers which will enable the caches to do their thing. /John -- John Tigue john.tigue@t... http://www.tigue.com xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
