iPlanet Web Server, FastTrack Edition Overview

iPlanet Web Server, FastTrack Edition is the perfect web server for developing and

testing Java applications and deploying low traffic web sites.

iPlanet Web Server, FastTrack Edition Overview

10 iPlanet Web Server, FastTrack Edition Installation Guide • June 2000

iPlanet Web Server, FastTrack Edition is easy to use, and comes with built-in

support for Java, SSL, and LDAP. Because it shares a common code base with

iPlanet Web Server, Enterprise Edition, applications developed for it can be run on

the Enterprise Edition without requiring changes.

Differences Between FastTrack Edition and

Enterprise Edition

iPlanet Web Server, FastTrack edition has many of the same features as Enterprise

Edition; however, some features have been removed from FastTrack Edition. There

were no previous versions of iPlanet Web Server, FastTrack Edition 4.1. However,

features were removed from the iPlanet Web Server, Enterprise Edition 4.1 to

create the FastTrack Edition feature set. Some of the features removed are:

Scalability. FastTrack Edition has a limit of 5 concurrent threads, which limits use

to low traffic environments or development.

Security. The FastTrack Edition SSL encryption level is only 56-bit, making it less

functional for highly secure environments.

High Availability . FastTrack Edition’s multiprocess mode has been disabled, so

process failover on Unix is not an option, as it is in Enterprise Edition. The

Intelligent Load Balancing Plug-in is also not available for FastTrack Edition.

Manageability. FastTrack Edition is limited to five virtual servers, as opposed to

256 in Enterprise Edition. FastTrack Edition does not support distributed

administration, cluster management, and SNMP monitoring.

LDAP is still required for user authentication, and the FastTrack Edition includes

license for use of Netscape Directory Server for development purposes.

Applications. FastTrack Edition servlets and JSPs do not run in multiprocess

mode. Because FastTrack Edition does not include the JavaScript environment,

there is no LiveWire native database access. Perl and NSAPI are still supported, as

are CGIs.

Content Management. FastTrack Edition does not include Web Publishing and

search have been removed.
