ZipEnable optimizes Windows 2003 Web servers with IIS 6.0 built-in HTTP compression; supporting compression for (X)HTML, ASP.NET, JavaScript, CSS, ColdFusion, and PHP to decrease bandwidth while increasing page load times.
When it comes to ensuring fast page load times, reducing bandwidth costs, and keeping users happy, HTTP compression is a must-have. However, in the past, Windows servers faced issues with compression functionality. Despite being non-existent on IIS 4 and broken on IIS 5, things changed drastically with the arrival of Windows Server 2003 that offered excellent built-in compression capabilities embedded in the core web server code itself.
To maximize the potential of the latest technology, ZipEnable is the way to go to unlock the maximum potential of IIS 6 built-in compression. While httpZip by Port80 Software may be the best ISAPI compression solution for Windows Web servers, we strongly advise relying on the internal compression engine in IIS 6.0 instead. This is because it operates at lightning-fast speed, comes with minimal resource penalties, and was already included when you purchased the OS.
However, an issue with IIS 6.0 native compression is that the management interface lacks configuration options. Majority controls like site-level compression, compression schemes, and advanced settings can only be accessed through the IIS metabase. ZipEnable solves this problem, enabling granular management of IIS 6.0 native compression at the global, site, directory, and file levels without requiring coding or metabase editing.
Setting up compression for both static and dynamic files, including JavaScript, CSS, Cold Fusion, and PHP, is as easy as a few clicks. ZipEnable includes browser compatibility checking, which only sends compressed content to browsers that can handle decompression. It also comes with CPU roll-off capabilities to keep the compression CPU cycles within your comfort zone.
Furthermore, ZipEnable is available for free as a 30-day trial and comes with free technical support. It is the ultimate solution to manage IIS 6 compression effectively and securely. For context, ZipEnable has recently included 64-bit support.
