What is the

Webcache?

The SuperStack

3 Webcache 1000 and 3000 are high-performance,

easily configurable webcache appliances. They offer the following

benefits to your network:

■ Reduced Network Traffic

The Webcache locally stores frequently accessed Web content and

quickly serves it to the end user on demand. This reduces the amount

of traffic on the WAN, providing significant cost benefits by reducing

the bandwidth requirement on expensive WAN links.

■ Reduced Web Latency

The end user receives Web content more quickly and with greater

quality of service if it is served from a local, high-speed Webcache

than if it is served from the Internet. Web object requests that have to

travel over long distances are limited to the speed and capacity of the

slowest link in the path. A Webcache that is closer to the client

machines reduces the potential for slow links and dropped data

packets.
