Server), is the leading Web Server in the world's largest
companies, delivering a single, secure infrastructure for
all web technologies and applications.
• Oracle iPlanet Web Server not only boosts performance
but also reduces the risk of potential security exploits.

10. Introductio
• Oracle iPlanet Web Server is a Web server that enhances
the end-user experience, and reduces the cost and
complexity of deploying and managing Web applications.
• Its multithreaded architecture scales well on modern 64-
bit multiprocessor architectures

demanding, high-traffic Web sites.

11. Features and Benefits

12. Features and
Benefits
Server Administration
· Allows control over virtual servers, quick access to tasks, and
integrated cluster management from a browser or a command-line
· The command-line interface is comprehensive, secure, scriptable and
remotely operated
· Most administration tasks can be applied without requiring processes
to restart

13. Features and
Benefits
Java Container and Session Failover
· A high-performance, in-process Java container provides a Java EE 5
compliant implementation of Java Servlets 2.5, JSP 2.1 and more
· The Java container offers lightweight session replication and failover
via in-memory, secure persistence within a cluster

14. Features and
Benefits
WebDAV File Management
· Allows easy management and publishing of content using industry
standard tools
HTTP Compression
· Enables administrators to conserve bandwidth and improve web site
performance
· Responses can be compressed based on MIME type, path, User-
Agent, and more
· Frequently accessed stated content can be automatically pre compressed
to ease system load

15. Features and
Benefits
Virtual Server Support
· Thousands of domains can be served from a single Java System Web
Server
· Each virtual server can have its own IP address, port, document root,
log files, and more
· Extensive virtualization allows efficient mass-hosting of many
domains with extensive customization of each domain

16. Features and
Benefits
Protection from Common Threats
· Built-in filters allow developers and administrators to use
familiar syntax to modify requests and responses
· This provides protection from common attacks, including Cross Site
Scripting (XSS) and Database Injection
· Also provides protection from distributed attacks by providing
request mapping for both URIs and IP

17. Features and
Benefits
Data Encryption and Security
· Resources can be secured with advanced Access Control Lists
(ACLs), built-in LDAP with flexible schema support, SSL v2 & v3,
TLS 1.0 and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC)
· SSL key sizes up to 4k can be used, and self-signed certificates can
be easily generated
· Integration with Solaris 10 Cryptographic Framework allows use of
capabilities such as the Niagara Cryptographic Framework (NCP)
· Dynamic updating of CRLs allows PKI management to be combined
with high service-availability requirements

18. Features and
Benefits
Fast CGI Support
Provides an efficient way to use third-party technologies in an out of-
process configuration
Fast CGI is commonly used to execute third-party code without
incurring a significant performance penalty or sacrificing server
stability

19. Features and
Benefits
Built-in search engine
· The built-in search engine allows the easy indexing and searching of
locally stored common document types.
64-bit support
· Allows Web Server to take full advantage of the resources available
from modern server environments, including a 64-bit Java container,
an in-process file cache that can take advantage of all the RAM
available, and SSL optimizations.
