Question

HTTP Cache control / GZIP compression

Hi,

is it possible to add / enable cache control / compression in Connect Pro (7 or 8)? If so, how?

I suspect we'll have to tweak the underlying http server for it but I'd like to know if this is documented somewhere and if it's supported. Especially, we'd like to

- add / configure Cache-Control http headers

- add / configure Expires http headers
- activate GZIP/Deflate compression

If this isn't something Connect offers out of the box, any recommendations for proxy servers to put in front of Connect and things to watch out for?

Thanks,

Dirk.

    That would not be included with Connect.  You would have to handle that completely outside Connect using a proxy server.

    Thanks. We solved it by adding a custom Servlet Filter to the web.xml.
