  4. The Problem

  5. Bandwidth, latency, congestion, and packet loss • Security & Authentication adds overhead IT Manager & App Architect • Users are increasingly remote and/or mobile • Web Application content is striving to be Fat and Fresh Web Applications are slow…Users are less productive • Regulation causes data center consolidation • = • Chatty applications and protocols

  6. Bandwidth ≠ Throughput 50 450,000 Throughput (Kb/s) vs. Distance (Miles) Throughput (Mb/s) vs. Packet Loss (%) 40 HTTP As distance increases, network latency increases and overall throughput decreases 300,000 FTP 30 As packet loss increases, overall throughput decreases Kb/s Mb/s 20 150,000 • More bandwidth does not equal more throughput • “Myths of Bandwidth” white paper http://www.f5.com/pdf/white-papers/bandwidth-myth-wp.pdf 10 0 0 6% 0 100 1,000 10,000 0 2% 4% 8% Miles Percentage

  7. WAN Latency WAN Latency WAN Latency WAN Latency Chatty Apps & Latency = Slow Apps Web Browser MyWebApp.com Web Servers Get / HTTP/1.1 250 ms Time Index.html Get /javascript.js HTTP/1.1 250 ms javascript.js Get /stylesheet.css HTTP/1.1 250 ms stylesheet.css Get /image(n).jpg HTTP/1.1 250 ms image(n).jpg A web page load with about 100 objects generates at least 100 round-trips WAN: 100/2 x 250 ms = 12.5 seconds! LAN: 100/2 x 1 ms = 50 ms

  8. F5’s Solution

  9. BIG-IP WebAccelerator Primary Data Center www.web.com sports.web.com BIG-IP LTM + WebAccelerator Real-time Monitors Web Servers Pre-defined Acceleration Policies webpromo.com Solution • Simplified and streamlined • Fix and accelerate web applications • Reduce bandwidth utilization • Offload Server processing • Mitigate the effects of network latency

  10. The Technology

  11. F5’s Approach – Three Tiers of Acceleration Network Offload Server Offload Application Offload

  12. F5 Approach – Three Tiers of Acceleration • Tier 1 Acceleration – Network Offload • Re-use downloaded objects/content (IBR) • Reduce data transferred (Compression) • Tier 2 Acceleration – Server Offload • Servers are busy serving same data over and over (Caching) • Too many connections to back-end servers (OneConnect & spooling) • Overflow of connections to back-end servers (RateShape & conn limit) • SSL offload • Compression offload • Tier 3 Acceleration – Application Offload • Browser re-downloads same content over and over (IBR) • Force multiple connections (MultiConnect) • Web apps are slow over the WAN (ESI, Compression, PDF linear..)

  13. Effect of 3 Tiers of AccelerationPage Load Time Up to 90% reduction in Page load time

  14. Effect of 3 Tiers of AccelerationCPU Utilization Up to 90% reduction in CPU utilization

  15. Tier 1 – Network Acceleration What’s happening in here?

  16. TCP and IP Optimizations Clients Web Applications 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 Wireless 1010101010101010101010101010101010101010101010101010101010101010101010101010101010101 Broadband 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 Dial-Up Problem • Different WAN Conditions affect TCP/IP Transmission • TCP stack on servers are not optimized for all WAN conditions • Affects connection efficiency and reliability

  17. TCP and IP Optimizations Clients Web Applications 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 Wireless 101010101010101010 101010101010101010101010101010101010101010101 101010101010101010 101010101010101010 Broadband 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 Dial-Up Solution • BIG-IP WebAccelerator Highly Optimized TCP/IP Stack • Optimized delivery per WAN conditions and client type • Optimized delivery per LAN conditions and application type • Translate between non-optimized clients on WAN and servers on LAN

  18. Tier 2 – Server Offload What’s happening in here?

  19. F5 Offloads Busy Servers Browser accelerated with IBR F5 speeds up downloads and offloads servers Busy servers offloaded

  20. Static and Dynamic Caching First Request Cache Compression Next Requests Cache • Content serving offload • Server connection offload • Reduced client latency • Stores compressed and non-compressed content

  21. Static and Dynamic Compression • Universal content ID ensures proper compression for dynamic content • 3x+ client performance improvement • Up to 66% reduction in bandwidth • Remove the burden of compression from servers Compression of static and dynamic objects

  22. Content Spooling Client Web Applications WAN Problem • TCP Overhead On Servers • There is overhead for breaking apart…”chunking” content • Client and Server negotiate TCP segmentation • Client forces more segmentation than is good for the server • Server burdened with breaking content up into small pieces

  23. Content Spooling Client Web Applications WAN Solution • Slurp up server content • Spoon feed client • Increase server capacity up to 15%

  24. Tier 3 – Application Acceleration What’s happening in here ?

  25. Intelligent Browser Referencing This is the onlydynamic content Problem • Repeated Content Retrieval Slows Web Application • Dynamic pages contain mostly static content that is retrieved repeatedly

  26. Intelligent Browser Referencing Initial Request Cache Compression Server sends No Cache Expire or Very Short Expire Apply policy defined cache expiration & promote as candidate for IBR Subsequent Client Requests Cache Apply IBR cache expiration Repeat Visits Retrieve from Browser Cache Solution • WebAccelerator Enables Browser Re-use of Cacheable Contents • No client to download • No changes to browser

  27. Dynamic PDF Linearization Client Web Applications 100 pages Entire document has to be retrieved before browser is able to render the 1st page Problem • PDF documents load slowly on browser • Gives the impression of slow application performance

  28. Dynamic PDF Linearization Client Web Applications 100 pages WebAccelerator Sends a page range at a time Retrieve entire document from server 1st page rendered immediately while the rest of the document are being retrieved Solution • Linearize document and serve a page range at a time • Immediate viewing of PDF documents • Fast time to first page view

  29. MultiConnect – More Connections Open! Clients Web Applications WAN Problem • Typical Web Application Connections • IE 6 & 7 supports only two HTTP connections per site at a time to the same host/domain • Limits concurrent downloads of contents at a time

  30. MultiConnect – More Connections Open! Clients Web Applications WebAccelerator WAN Solution • WebAccelerator Enables More Browser Connections • Without server side code changes • Without any browser modification

  31. Enterprise CDN

  32. Content Delivery Network Remote Facility Primary Data Center CIFS Servers BIG-IP BIG-IP ExchangeServers LTM WA LTM WA Central Remote Web Servers Solution • Symmetric WebAccelerator Deployment • Improve 1st visits and repeat visits performance at remote sites • Cache content closer to the end user • Build Content Delivery Network over the Internet or private network
