that makes the FM11g documentation a piece of humorous fiction.

B.3 Can I Use Oracle HTTP Server As Cache?

Oracle recommends using Oracle Web Cache instead. Oracle Web Cache is a
content-aware server accelerator and secure reverse proxy server that
improves the performance, scalability, and availability of Web sites. For
more details, refer to the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide
for Oracle Web Cache
<https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/web.1111/e10143/toc.htm>.
B.7 Can I Compress Output From Oracle HTTP Server?

In general, Oracle recommends using Oracle Web Cache for this purpose.
Oracle Web Cache provides efficient delivery of contents by using
on-the-fly compression, dynamically learning which MIME types are
compressible, and throttling responses to slower network clients. Another
compression solution is mod_deflate, which is included with Oracle HTTP
Server. For more information pertaining to mod_deflate module, see
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_deflate.html[image: Opens a new
window] <http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_deflate.html>

checked the documentation, Web Cache is deprecated, Oracle wants us to buy
Traffic Director for engineered systems instead.

Basically Web Cache is gone and hasn't been replaced with an equivalent.

I'll search to see whether it is possible to tell OHS to compress
traffic... sigh.

The did this before; in iAS 1.0.2. iFS was part of the suite, then it
disappeared in the next version.

Mind you Fusion is a bundle of many things

Makes it more difficult to know what's licensed and what isn't when
things are spread out all over the place.

On 11g, it's part of Oracle Webtier Utilities

Just checking,

Oracle Web Cache was part of AS10g (904).
In FM11g, doesn't seem to be there. Am I missing something?

Is it in FM12c?

If not in the newer versions, is it because Oracle is charging for Web
Cache now?

​I remember seeing Web Cache listed on a download page somewhere, I
thought that was a bit weird at the time but didn't put 2 & 2 together.​
