Joesph,
1) Not every request is intended for an IIS server, i.e. the forward proxy
scenario. Let's say you have a ISA server as a proxy that gives your
internal users outbound access to the Internet. Some internal users are in
a branch office with WAN connectivity over a partial frame relay. You would
like them to get faster Internet access, however you don't want to pay for
more channels on the frame relay (or faster DSL, or...) so you use
compression on the ISA server and those users have faster access.
2) Maybe your IIS 6.0 server's CPU is taxed from serving ASP.NET pages and
you would like to offload compression to your ISA server doing reverser
proxy.
3) Maybe you are caching 50% of the web site's static content on your ISA
server, and you would like to compress it before it goes out so that you
save bandwidth, in this scenario IIS 6.0 is never called, even though the
page might have originated there.
4) Maybe you are using ISA server in front of an iPlanet, WebSphere, IIS
5.0, AS/400, and a Apache server and you want to provide one place to
maintain compression software.
Note: XCompress for ISA is not for IIS, it is for ISA. We sell "XCompress
for IIS" for IIS, and that is another story.

How does your product differ from the caching and compression that IIS 6.0
offers And why would someone purchase your product when IIS 6.0 works great?
Thank you,
Joseph

ISAList:
I will take just a second to blow my own horn and try to get some Beta
Testers. We (XCache Technologies) have developed an ISA filter that
performs HTTP compression on traffic going through the ISA server in
both directions.
Basically, HTTP compression is what Google and a bunch of other
companies are using to speed their pages and decrease their bandwidth
and it doesn't require any client side code -- the browsers know how to
decompress since it is part of the HTTP 1.1 standard.
I am looking for a few Beta testers that would like to try the product,
we have developed in conjuction with Microsoft and they are testing it
already for us. Just write me off the list.
Kind Regards,
