Jolt Configuration Options
With Jolt, PeopleSoft provides the options of configuring load balancing, session pooling, domain connection passwords, and (for some special configurations) Jolt Internet Relay. Load balancing enables you to route requests to servers according to the ability of a server to handle a given request load. Powerful, dedicated servers can take a higher load while less powerful servers can take a lighter load. Session pooling enables user sessions to share web server connections, which is a more efficient use of system resources. The domain connection password enables you to add a connection password to the session between the PeopleSoft Internet Architecture and the application server. Jolt Internet Relay enables you to route connections from one web server to another, perhaps through a fire wall, for specific configuration or security needs.
