Abstract: This is a Sun BluePrints paper. As individuals and businesses depend on the Web more than ever to
conduct business, rapid and reliable content retrieval
is critical. Reducing wait time improves productivity and increases
user satisfaction. Web proxy technology has emerged as an
effective solution to improve performance, help ensure content
availability and enhance network security by caching and filtering
Web content. The combination of Sun SPARC Enterprise servers with
CoolThreads technology and the Sun Java System Web Proxy Server
software provides a compelling foundation for a robust Web proxy
solution. Sun SPARC Enterprise T1000 and T2000 servers include the
UltraSPARC T1 processor with CoolThreads technology, offering six or
eight cores with four threads per core. The Sun Java System Web
Proxy Server software is highly threaded and takes advantage of the
large number of threads supported by Sun UltraSPARC T1 processors
with CoolThreads technology. Together, these products provide a highly
scalable solution that accommodates a large number of requests,
addresses peak loads, and provides future headroom for growth. This
document explores the use of a Sun SPARC Enterprise T1000 server
and the Sun Java System Web Proxy Server software as a replacement for
an existing Web proxy implementation that used the SQUID Web
proxy server software deployed on x86 servers.
