Network Cache Accelerator

NCA is a  kernel-loadable module that enhances HTTP performance for static content. It is supported on Solaris 7 and must be configured with a web server such as Sun WebServer 2.1.

The Network Cache and Accelerator, NCA, increases web server performance by maintaining an in-kernel cache of web pages accessed during HTTP requests. NCA provides full HTTP 1.1 support in the kernel by either handling the request or passing it to the web server for processing.
