NimbostratusPersistent Vs OneConnect
What are the differences between persistent and oneconnect profiles (both are regarding HTTP keep-alive )? NB. I am not asking about persistence
Hey!
I would say that Persistent connections is the technical concept of reusing existing TCP connections towards the back-end server which is also known as TCP Multiplexing.
OneConnect is the technology that the BIG-IP uses to utilize Persistent connections. If F5 has added additional features that goes outside of the scope of persistent connections I'm not sure of. But based on these articles it does not seem like it:
Persistent and Persistence, What's the Difference?
K7208: Overview of the OneConnect profile
So I would say the difference is:
Persistent Connections = Technical Concept
OneConnect = Technical Feature used by the BIG-IP to utilize Persistent Connections.
I hope this helps!
Let me know if you have any further questions! :)
