| ZipEnable 3.0 for IIS 6.0 IIS 6.0 Native Compression Management & Browser Compatibility HTTP compression speeds up file delivery across the Internet, keeps your users happy with faster page loads, and reduces bandwidth costs. Compression was non-existent on IIS 4 and broken on IIS 5, but Windows Server 2003 with Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 now offers great out-of-the-box compression embedded into the core Web server code itself. While Port80 Software's httpZip is the best ISAPI compression solution for Windows Web servers, we highly recommend that you use the internal compression engine in IIS 6.0 on Windows Server 2003 -- it's lightning fast, incurs minimal resource penalties, and you already bought it when you bought the OS. There are a few major drawbacks to IIS 6.0 built-in compression: natively, IIS 6.0 offers no browser compatibility checking and limited configuration options. Compression can only be safely deployed with browser checking, as you may wind up sending compressed content to a browser that cannot decompress it! IIS 6.0 also does not provide a graphical interface to most controls (necessities like site level compression, compression schemes, and all advanced settings are only accessible via a labor-intensive programmatic interface). Beyond these limitations, there are a few specific cases where you should explore an ISAPI solution on IIS 6.0 over native compression. However, for the majority of implementations, unlock IIS 6.0 native compression with ZipEnable for more than an "On/Off" choice with compression. Granularly manage compression at the global, site, directory, and file levels -- all without writing a single line of code or editing the IIS metabase. You can easily configure compression on all static and dynamic files and the configuration wizard will guide you through deployment quickly. ZipEnable also provides vital, real-time, updated browser compatibility checking to make sure that browsers that can handle decompression, and CPU roll-off to keep compression CPU cycles within your comfort zone. After "ZipEnabling" your site, add even more performance optimization with CacheRight and w3compiler.
