73 Cache Clustering

Clustering Oracle Application Server Web Cache instances together increases the capacity of the cache and the number of requests that can be served concurrently. By automatically partitioning a site’s content across multiple cache peers and replicating the most popular content among those peers, OracleAS Web Cache can store more content and can support more browser connections.

Cache clustering extends application availability by supporting failure and recovery detection of cache instances. If a cache instance fails, the cluster members detect the failure and continue to serve content with the remaining cluster peers.
