Hi,
A few words about intended usage would be of great help.
- How many concurrent users
- Type of transactions
- You really think the http front is going to be you bottle neck? or
are there back end systems that will pose a greater problem (I would
think so)
Why not just use a normal server as ssl accelerator? I know several
SSL accelerator "appliancees" that are just that anyway. Unless you
have specific keyhandling requirements (FIPS140-3 or something),
using normal server hardware is much cheaper.
regards
martin

Hello, I am trying to plan a system that can handle 10k-100k users.
I am only using apache w/mod-ssl
What should I look at to reduce overhead of bandwidth/cpu/mem?
At what point should I look at ssl accelerators?
Should I definitly look at clustering?
Also.. I ahve heard about ssl session key caching, anyone know how
much this will improve things?
Any good resources I can read?
thanks!
