Andreas Veithen commented on SYNAPSE-383:
-----------------------------------------
Why would writing an AJP listener automatically imply having a blocking HTTP
transport? Can you substantiate that claim based on your knowledge of the
architecture of Apache HTTPD and the way the AJP protocol works?
Independently of that question (non-blocking transports are not essential in
every use case) I think that the reporter of this issue gave two key reasons
why an AJP listener would be interesting:
- It would allow to offload the SSL related workload to HTTPD (which will
always be faster than any Java based implementation).
- Security: e.g. would you want to allow direct connections from the public
Internet to Synapse?
> AJP 1.3 Transport Listener/Sender

> Key: SYNAPSE-383
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNAPSE-383
> Project: Synapse
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Transports
> Environment: Apache front end with Tomcat connected via the AJP
> protocol.
> Reporter: Jonathan Holmes
>
> understanding that this is not support but it does open the ESB up for
> different uses and different configurations. I guess the ultimate problem
> I'm having is that I have an apache front end which interfaces with Tomcat
> via AJP 1.3... Being able to just use the ESB admin port to see/execute the
> proxy services I create just as if it were running through the NIO
> listener/sender would allow me to not have to open another port or proxy in
> the requests through apache...
> This is essential because when trying to proxy in a PKI SSL request it is
> extremely slow. I have tested this by opening up the admin port and there is
> a huge increase in performance...
> I guess based on what I explained if the ESB's admin port was not opened is
> there a way to add an AJP listener/sender? This would solve my problem and
> still keeps the admin UI/port doing only admin stuff.
