Optimizing tcp between China and Malta
We've got a site in China and one in Malta and the China site need to contact resources in Malta (pretty small requests in terms of size, but many). Up until now we've been using the VPN for this but...
Hi Michael
Thanks for your answer. We're transferring encrypted uid's. The size of the responses are between 0,5kb and 8 kb.
Compression is turned on and caching is not necessary since each request is more or less unique.
I tried OneConnect too, but it did not make any difference.
Here's what we've done so far:
1. Wan-optimized and lan-optimized tcp profiles. Slow.
2. Regular TCP profiles on both client and server side. OK speed.
3. Performance HTTP. Very fast.
What I can't figure out though is how the https can be terminated with the Performance HTTP server since there's no option to specify an HTTPS profile. I even changed browsers in between to rule out caching but they all show the correct certificate.
I'd be happy to use the Performance HTTP type, but only if I can figure out exactly how the SSL termination works.
Any ideas?
