What is Java System Web Proxy Server (formerly Sun ONE Web Proxy Server)?
Java System Web Proxy Server is high-performance server software for caching and filtering Web content for e-commerce solutions, enterprise customers or Internet Service Providers (ISPs). It provides caching on-demand by intelligently caching frequently accessed documents and caching on-command for batch updates of the cache. This replication model conserves network bandwidth and reduces response times for clients. Java System Web Proxy Server also enables network administrators to maintain fine-grain control over the use of network resources by blocking access to specific sites by user or by document. It also solves the problems of network congestion and slow response time, and provides control over network resources without burdening end users or network administrators.
