What does the SSL Acceleration feature do?
The Condenser’s SSL acceleration feature enables it to handle the SSL Handshake with clients, decrypt web requests from clients, transparently proxy them to the content server, condense the server responses (via the delta optimization and FlashForward capabilities), encrypt the condensed responses, and deliver them to clients within secure SSL connections. The Condenser accelerates SSL performance by requiring only small delta optimized pages to be encrypted rather than the entire page. In addition, FlashForward object acceleration eliminates the vast majority of object validation requests from clients on subsequent page visits, resulting in a significantly reduced number of SSL-based transactions and a significant increase in SSL scalability. Integrated SSL capabilities make the Condenser the only transparent solution to deliver guaranteed secure content acceleration.
