Scalability and Performance
Oracle iPlanet Web Server 7.0 is a
multithreaded, multiprocess application
that can be run in either 32-bit or
64-bit mode, delivering high performance
for dynamic and secure content and
superior scalability of more than
100,000 simultaneous connections on
multicore, Chip Multithreading (CMT)
systems.
Server Administration
The administration interface allows fine
control over virtual servers, quick
access to frequently used tasks, and
integrated cluster management without
sacrificing ease-of-use from a browser
based or a command-line based
interface. The command-line interface is
comprehensive, secure and scriptable and
can be operated remotely. The JMX-based
management infrastructure and N1 Service
Provisioning Service (SPS) allows
distributed deployments with real time
monitoring and life cycle management
across web server farms. Most common
administration tasks on processes
without requiring restarts.
Cluster Support
Built in cluster support allows
monitoring and administration of
clusters of Web Servers, peer-to-peer
in-memory Java session replication.
Versatile Pattern Matching
Full regular expression support allows
for versatile processing of requests
based upon patterns, numerous
environment variables, masking of
complex application URIs, and mass
hosting environments.
Java Web Container and Session Failover
A high-performance, in-process Java EE 5
compliant implementation of Java
Servlets 2.5, JavaServer Pages (JSP)
2.1, JavaServer Faces (JSF) 1.2, JSTL
(JSP Standard Tag Library) 1.2, Java Web
Services Developer Pack (JWSDP) 2.0 and OASIS Message
Security and more. Lightweight session
failover via in-memory, secure data
replication provides session persistence
over server restarts. Integration with
NetBeans 5, Java Studio Enterprise 8.1
and Creator Developer Tools makes it
easy top develop, debug and deploy your
Java web applications.
WebDAV Publishing and File Management
WebDAV support allows easy management
and publishing of content to the Web
Server using industry standard
tools. Oracle iPlanet Web Server 7.0
supports native Access Control Lists
(ACLs) in addition to WebDAV ACLs in
conjunction with WebDAV.
HTTP Compression
Compressing data before it is sent to
user-agents enables administrators to
conserve bandwidth and improve the
performance of their site. Data can be
compressed by MIME type, path, client,
user-agent, and more.
Automatic Method Correction
When user-agents accidentally provide
URLs indicating an unsecured connection
to a port number configured for
encryption, they are automatically
redirected to the correct URL method for
that port.

Virtual Server Support
Thousands of domains can be served from
a single Web Server process. Each
virtual server can have its own IP
address, port, document root,
preferences, log files, and more.
Content Filters
NSAPI Filters allow developers and
administrators to use application logic
to modify request and response and
response headers and payload in real
time.
Data Encryption and Security
Resources can be secured with advanced
Access Control Lists (ACLs), built-in
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol
(LDAP) with flexible schema support,
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) v2 & v3,
Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.0 and
leading edge Elliptic Curve Cryptography
(ECC). Key sizes up to 4k can be used,
and self-signed certificates can be
easily generated. Integration with
Solaris 10 Cryptographic Framework
allows use of capabilities such as the
Niagara Cryptographic Framework
(NCP). Support for installation of
certificates and keys stored in JKS
format allows easy certificate and key
sharing. Dynamic updating of Certificate
Revocation Lists (CRLs) allows PKI
management to be combined with high
service availability requirements.
Protection From Common Threats
Built-in protection from common attacks
including Cross Site Scripting, distributed
request attacks against URIs, and excessive
requests from IP addresses.
Integrated Search Engine
The built-in search engine provides a
powerful out-of-the-box search solution
for common document types.
Integrated Reverse Proxy
Fully integrated Reverse Proxy User-Agent
allows Oracle iPlanet Web Server 7.0 to act as
the HTTP end-point for third-party HTTP origin
servers including all popular application
servers.
FastCGI Support
Support for the FastCGI protocol provides an
efficient way to use third-party technologies
in an out-of-process configuration. FastCGI is
commonly used to execute third-party code
without incurring a significant performance
penalty.
Robust Migration Tool
The integrated migration tools make it easy to
migrate existing Sun Java System Web Server
6.x server configurations.
