HTTP-based Proxy, Router & Load Balancer components
RealThinClient SDK now also includes flexible and easy-to-use
components
and
example Projects which make
it
easily
to
write robust and
flexible
HTTP-based Load Balancers, Routers and Proxy Servers with Delphi and C++Builder.
RealThinClient SDK can be used to build Load Balancers, Routers and Proxy Servers for
all kinds of HTTP-based Applications and NOT only for Applications built with the RTC SDK.
RealThinClient SDK is the only
solution which gives you full real-time control of every single
Request
sent
to your HTTP-based Servers and every single Response received from your Servers,
with
options to rewrite Requests and/or Responses as they pass through, queue
Requests
when Servers are busy or unavailable and easily reject/filter
unwanted Requests.
When would you need a Load Balancer? For example, when you have a lot of Clients
and
your Server-side code
uses
a lot of RAM or
needs a lot of computing power per Client.
Another example where a Load Balancer would be useful is when someone has made
the
mistake
to use the wrong components or tools for writing a Web Application and now the
Server unable
to handle all the Clients. In that case, a Load Balancer set up
to
allow
only
a
limited number of concurrent connections to the Server, slowing down the rate at
which
each
Server has to work and balancing the load across multiple Servers would solve the problem.
When would you need a Router or a reverse Proxy? When you have multiple
Applications
hosted on different Servers and all of
them need to
be
accessible through one address and port.
And what is a Proxy good for? Proxies are mostly used for monitoring communication going from LAN to
the
Internet
and
are useful for implementing filters for limiting access to undesired destinations on the Web.
