White Paper: High-Performance Commerce Sites with SSCE and APGen 849 KB; Updated 9/18/2001 6:24 PM

Excerpt: This white paper demonstrates how to use APGen 2.x and ASPCache 1.x with Microsoft Site Server Commerce Edition 3.0 to implement high-performance, robust e-commerce sites.  The white paper and supporting source code serve these purposes:

• Help commerce sites achieve higher efficiency and throughput
• Provide hard numbers showing the performance improvements resulting from APGen optimization techniques.
• Demonstrate APGen and ASPCache usage in real world sites, on real world hardware.  While the Volcano Coffee commerce sites are not real world web sites, the complexity and sophistication of the examples approaches that of some real world sites.  In addition, the Volcano Coffee code is sometimes used as a starting point for real world commerce sites.
