Asking easier and more comprehensive explanation about LineRate application proxsy software Sir!!

Hello,

Take a look at LineRate documentation and see if that gives you a better understanding on what the product is, and what it does. There are diagrams and use cases in the documentation as well.

1) LineRate sits in the data path and gives you the ability to take action based on data in server request and response as well as client request and response. For HTTP service all aspects of HTTP packet can be inspected, decision made based on it, data rewritten, request rejected, or any other action one deems necessary. This functionality is provided via Nodejs API, which also gives flexibility to program logic that could encompass a third service such as database lookup for decision making what to do with the request. Third party Nodejs modules could be loaded using npm (Node Package Manager) implementation LineRate comes with. This gives you access to over tens of thousands of community provided modules.

2) LineRate is a SW appliance that can be installed on server HW, as well as installed on virtualized systems (cloud).

DevOps community can utilize LineRate to create simple solutions for challenges that come with web applications, such as checking for presence of a cookie in HTTP request, if not present, contact the authentication server, then based on authentication response inject the cookie into the HTTP request before it is sent to real server.
