Performance web : Quelques outils en ligne

by 2 others
Le concept de ces outils est le même : on prend une URL, on lance la page, et on trace la cascade des requêtes HTTP avec quelques statistiques. C’est là qu’on voit le temps pris par chaque composant, par la somme des composants, et les éventuels problèmes de performance comme les scripts bloquants.

IE WebDeveloper - DOM Inspector, Script Console, Logging messages and HTTP Monitor

The rich web debugging toolset allows you to inspect and edit the live HTML DOM and current cascaded styles, evaluate expressions and display error messages, log messages, explore source code of webpage and monitor DHTML Event and HTTP Traffic.

Linux.com :: Using free software for HTTP load testing

by 1 other (via)
A good way to see how your Web applications and server will behave under high load is by testing them with a simulated load. We tested several free software tools that do such testing to see which work best for what kinds of sites. If you leave out the load-testing packages that are no longer maintained, non-free, or fail the installation process in some obscure way, you are left with five candidates: curl-loader, httperf, Siege, Tsung, and Apache JMeter.

Adminspotting : Zone0, le serveur parfait » UNIX Garden

L’idée était de profi ter du dimensionnement de ce petit monstre pour monter une plate-forme architecturée autour de Xen. Vous le savez peut-être, chez GCU, on est très BSD. Nous avions donc à l’esprit de monter l’architecture suivante : * dom0 sous NetBSD ; * domU shells, destiné à accueillir des accès ssh pour les membres du groupe ayant cotisé à la mirobolante dîme annuelle ; * domU services, qui hébergera les services classiques hors HTTP ; * domU gcu où se trouvera le site principal et ses moult plugins ; * domU www, domaine où nous hébergerons les sites tiers. Afin de profi ter au maximum de ce nouveau matériel, nous envisagions également, naïfs que nous sommes, de n’avoir que des systèmes de type amd64. Nous verrons que cet espoir s’est envolé. Il est important de noter que si NetBSD dispose d’une version dotée d’un noyau de type domU, ce n’est pas le cas d’OpenBSD, aussi, c’est uniquement grâce au mode HVM (Hardware Virtual Machine) de Xen que nous serons en mesure de mettre en place des domUs ne bénéficiant pas de noyaux modifiés.

Load Balancing et Fail Over pour les services Web » UNIX Garden

Comment gérer la répartition de charge et la tolérance aux erreurs lors de l’invocation d’un service web ? Nous allons étudier le problème et proposer une solution élégante, s’appuyant sur la création d’un plugin du framework Axis, généralement utilisé pour les applications Java. Les services web permettent d’invoquer des services publiés sur des serveurs HTTP, JMS ou autres. Un service web est identifié par un URL, appelé « port » dans le jargon. Cela identifie un serveur, un port de socket et un chemin. Le client doit générer une requête en XML et l’envoyer en mode POST sur l’URL du service web. Celui-ci analyse la requête, invoque le service et la méthode correspondante, puis retourne une réponse ou une exception à l’appelant. Tout cela au format XML. Comment les serveurs peuvent-ils garantir leur fonctionnement ? Que faire si un serveur tombe ? Est-ce qu’un serveur de secours est disponible ? Étudions les différentes techniques à notre disposition pour garantir l’exécution d’un service web dans le cadre d’une publication HTTP.

Set Up Gateway Level Virus Security With ClamAV And SafeSquid Proxy | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials

In this HowTo, I will explain how you can secure your network from virus and other malware, by installing ClamAV and integrating it with SafeSquid, to scan all in-coming content for virus, and block all infected content at the HTTP Gateway, even before it enters your network. Virus Security In SafeSquid SafeSquid has built-in connectivity to various daemon based anti virus software like ClamAV, Sophos, Avast, F-Prot, NOD32 and Kaspersky. It also has a universal ICAP (Internet Content Adaptation Protocol) client that can be used to connect to ICAP based security software like Dr.Web ICAP, Kaspersky Antivirus for Proxy Server, Trend Micro InterScan Web Security and Symantec Scan Engine. You can even use multiple anti virus software with SafeSquid to simultaneously scan in-coming content. This does not cause any significant latency, since SafeSquid has a multi-threaded architecture.

HAVP – HTTP Antivirus Proxy » UNIX Garden

Dans cet article, nous allons étudier la mise en place d’un proxy http antivirus : HAVP (http://www.server-side.de). Chacune des pages web demandées par un client est analysée par un antivirus. L’antivirus peut être au choix Clamav, F-prot ou Kaspersky. De plus, HAVP sait parfaitement travailler avec Squid au cas où vous souhaiteriez continuer de l’utiliser. Nous verrons premièrement comment installer l’antivirus utilisé par HAVP. Deuxièmement, comment installer HAVP et les modifications à effectuer pour le faire fonctionner. Enfin, nous verrons des exemples de configuration d’HAVP : * Seul ; * Seul en proxy transparent ; * Et les deux moyens différents de l’utiliser conjointement avec Squid.

Apsis Gmbh

by 2 others
The Pound program is a reverse proxy, load balancer and HTTPS front-end for Web server(s). Pound was developed to enable distributing the load among several Web-servers and to allow for a convenient SSL wrapper for those Web servers that do not offer it natively. Pound is distributed under the GPL - no warranty, it's free to use, copy and give away. WHAT POUND IS: 1. a reverse-proxy: it passes requests from client browsers to one or more back-end servers. 2. a load balancer: it will distribute the requests from the client browsers among several back-end servers, while keeping session information. 3. an SSL wrapper: Pound will decrypt HTTPS requests from client browsers and pass them as plain HTTP to the back-end servers. 4. an HTTP/HTTPS sanitizer: Pound will verify requests for correctness and accept only well-formed ones. 5. a fail over-server: should a back-end server fail, Pound will take note of the fact and stop passing requests to it until it recovers. 6. a request redirector: requests may be distributed among servers according to the requested URL. Pound is a very small program, easily audited for security problems. It can run as setuid/setgid and/or in a chroot jail. Pound does not access the hard-disk at all (except for reading the certificate file on start, if required) and should thus pose no security threat to any machine.

Reduce Apache's Load With lighttpd On Debian Etch | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials

Lighttpd, sometimes pronounced "Lighty", is a lightweight HTTP server that can help alleviate Apache's load by serving static content. Since Lighttpd uses less resources per request than Apache, it generally serves most static content faster than Apache. This tutorial shows how to install Lighttpd behind Apache via Apache´s proxy module.

Un client de geolocalisation en cinq lignes de PHP avec l'API Google Maps - Prendre un Café

by 6 others
Google propose des choses vraiment intéressantes au travers de ses API, comme par exemple son méconnu (car planqué dans la doc) webservice HTTP de géolocalisation. L'idée ici est de récupérer la lattitude et la longitude d'un endroit géographique à partir de sa description, par exemple Paris, France ou encore 3 allée des allouettes, 35000 Rennes, France.

Improve website load time by 500% with 3 lines of code | Aciddrop.com

by 2 others (via)
There are 4 relatively easy ways by which you can speed up the time it takes a browser to download a page: * Make fewer HTTP requests * Add a far-future expires header * Gzip your page's components * Minify your JavaScript, CSS and HTML Following on from my post on joining CSS and JavaScript files, I have written a PHP script which will automatically do all of the above.

Linux install and configure pound reverse proxy for Apache http / https web server

Pound is a reverse-proxy load balancing server. It accepts requests from HTTP / HTTPS clients and distributes them to one or more Web servers. The HTTPS requests are decrypted and passed to the back-ends as plain HTTP. It will act as: a) Server load balancer b) Reverse proxy server c) Apache reverse proxy etc d) It can detects when a backend server fails or recovers, and bases its load balancing decisions on this information: if a backend server fails, it will not receive requests until it recovers e) It can decrypts https requests to http ones f) Rejects incorrect requests h) It can be used in a chroot environment (security feature)

Ext FileTree Widget Example by Saki

by 2 others
FileTreePanel is client-server application where client (browser) provides the user interface (UI) which displays the tree and context menu, handles drag & drop operations, etc. The filesystem that is displayed and managed by the UI is stored on a server. Therefore, we need some communication layer between client and server. Client sends a command to server, server processes this command and responds with a result. Client in turn processes the response and display results. All this communication is running in the background by Ajax (XMLHttpRequest) calls. The XMLHttpRequest is not used directly but the Ext JS - JavaScript Library ajax layer is used for this purpose. Client requests data from server with standard POST method and server is expected to respond with JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) string and appropriate HTTP headers.

Apache Web Server Speed Configuration Hacks

by 1 other
Apache server performance can be improved by adding additional hardware resources such as RAM, faster CPU, etc. But most of the time, the same result can be achieved by custom configuration of the server. This article looks into getting maximum performance out of Apache with the existing hardware resources, specifically on Linux systems. Of course, it is assumed that there is enough hardware resources - especially enough RAM that the server isn’t swapping frequently. First two sections look into various Compile-Time and Run-Time configuration options. The Run-Time section assumes that Apache is compiled with prefork MPM. HTTP compression and caching is discussed next. Finally, using separate servers for serving static and dynamic contents is covered. Basic knowledge of compiling and configuring Apache and Linux are assumed.

Caching Tutorial

by 23 others, 1 comment (via)
A Web cache sits between one or more Web servers (also known as origin servers) and a client or many clients, and watches requests come by, saving copies of the responses — like HTML pages, images and files (collectively known as representations) — for itself. Then, if there is another request for the same URL, it can use the response that it has, instead of asking the origin server for it again.
