6 Macromedia Breeze Edge Server

Introduction to edge servers

Edge servers are configured to allocate and balance access to a Breeze server by using the

existing bandwidth resources more efficiently. Once the edge servers are deployed, users access

Breeze through their edge server. Edge servers authenticate these users and authorize their

requests for web services such as Macromedia Breeze Meeting rather than forwarding every

request to the Breeze server and consuming its resources for these tasks. If the data requested is

found in the edge server’s cache, it returns the Breeze Meeting data to the requesting client

(the user’s computer) without calling upon the Breeze server. This detour to the Breeze server

is transparent to users. In this scenario, no demands are placed on the origin Breeze server.

If the data requested is not found in the edge server’s cache, it forwards the client’s request to

the Breeze server, where the user is authenticated and the request for services authorized. The

Breeze server returns the results to the requesting edge server, which in turn delivers the results

to the requesting client. The edge server also stores this information in its cache, where other

authenticated users can access it. In this scenario, fewer requests for services are forwarded to

the origin Breeze server.

Introduction to edge servers 7

An edge server is configured to intercept the requests for Breeze services from a particular

zone, to collect or aggregate these requests, and transmit them to the origin Breeze server. The

Breeze server returns the results to the edge server, which forwards the data to the user’s client

computer. A networked Breeze deployment might have multiple edge servers installed. For

example, one edge server might aggregate and forward requests from San Francisco and

another might aggregate and forward requests from Boston. Each edge server gathers the

requests from its clients and forwards them to the origin Breeze server located in a data center

in Chicago, receives the responses from the origin Breeze server, then transmits and distributes

them to the clients in its zone.

Connecting to Breeze through edge

servers

When edge servers are present on an organization’s network, Breeze users connect to Breeze

Meeting indirectly through the edge (or proxy) server. This connection occurs transparently.

To Breeze users, it appears that they are connected directly to the Breeze server hosting Breeze

Meeting, but they are most likely connected through the proxy or edge server servicing their

local network. Edge servers offload traffic to the origin Breeze server caching static content

like recorded Breeze meetings and presentations.

These take place behind the network connection to the Breeze server. The client (the user’s

computer) connects to the edge (proxy) server instead of making a direct connection to Flash

Communication Server (FCS) (Breeze Meeting) directly. The edge server in turn connects to

the origin Breeze server. Many additional steps, such as user authentication and permissions

authorization, are hidden from the Breeze user.

Edge servers provide an additional layer of defense between the user’s Internet connection and

the Breeze server. All traffic coming from the Internet and with Breeze as its destination goes

through the edge server.
