Solaris Network Cache and Accelerator (NCA)

The Solaris Network Cache and Accelerator (NCA) has been improved with the addition of a sockets interface to NCA. With minimal modifications, any web server can communicate through the sockets interface. Web servers such as Apache, Sun ONE Web Server (formerly iPlanet Web Server), and Zeus are able to make use of NCA performance by using standard socket library functions. Also, NCA now supports vectored sendfile, which provides support for AF_NCA. Finally, the ncab2clf command has been enhanced. New options enable you to skip records before a selected date and to process a particular number of records when converting log files.

For more information about NCA, see Chapter 2, Managing Web Cache Servers, in System Administration Guide: Resource Management and Network Services.
