From general topics to more of what you would expect to find here, swiftcore.org has it all. We hope you find what you are searching... Swiftiply is a fast backend agnostic clustering proxy for web applications that is specifically designed to support HTTP traffic from web frameworks. New in this release, other than some bugfixes and performance tweaks, are three notable items: 1. Built in static file handling and Rails page cache handling. This should, for many applications, simplify and accelerate deployment considerably, as it can eliminate the need for a traditional web server in front of the application. 2. Redeployable requests. If a backend is handling a request, and that backend goes down before it returns a response to the request, Swiftiply can redeploy the request to the next available backend node, ensuring that the request is handled. 3. HUP handling. Change your configuration to add or remove proxy destinations, and you can just HUP Swiftiply to have it reload the configuration. The documentation has mostly been updated to reflect these changes, though there are some sample configurations being added soon. Around the beginning of next week I will release 0.6.2 that will contain some further enhancements to the static file handling, so that HTTP caching directives are properly handled. Kirk H.
