External web server configuration

If your PPM deployment includes an external web server, you must use the following optimizations:

• Enable dynamic content compression on the Web server

  For example, on Apache, enable the mod_deflate module. On Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS), enable native compression. For detailed information, see the Installation and Administration Guide.

• Enable keepalive

  Some Web servers turns off keepalive. For example, Apache mod_ssl (HTTPS) turns off keepalive for Microsoft Internet Explorer by default. If you are running Apache and mod_ssl to provide HTTPS support, you must make sure that keepalive is turned off.

• Deactivate cache-control header interference

  For example, on Apache, activate mod_expires.
