I'm going to submit the following my talk proposal for a 45 minutes presentation session on OSCon 2005:
Open Source Dynamic Data Compression in Business Implementations 1. Basics of the content compression. 2. Examples of compressed files; Benefits of data compression in numbers. 3. Dynamic compression vs. Static compression; Latency benefits in graphics and numbers. 4. History of the open source mod_perl Apache handler Apache::Dynagzip: a) fast and flexible development on the base of mod_perl Apache-1.3; b) open source debug benefits, time-line of bug reports, stability; c) run-time benefits of mod_perl; d) community feedback on the final product. 5. Recent commercial solutions on the top of the Dynagzip project: a) The Last Mile ISP; b) Internet Banking; c) Semi-Static Pages for Dynamic Content. 6. Further implementations on the top of the open source prototype: a) WAP; b) XML; c) web services. I tried my best to make this informative for both of the developers and managers, however, concentrating on business objectives mainly. I would highly appreciate any constructive critique and/or suggestions prior to submitting this to OSCon (approximately -- next weekend). You can respond to the List, or privately, whatever you prefer. Thanks, Slava -- http://www.lastmileisp.com
