Edge Caching for Directory Based Web Applications: Algorithms and Performance

Overview In this paper, a dynamic content caching framework is proposed for deploying directory based applications at the edge of the network, closer to the client. The framework consists of a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory cache and the offloaded application running at a proxy. The LDAP directory cache is an enhanced LDAP proxy server, which stores results and semantic information for search requests (queries) and answers incoming queries, which are semantically contained in them. A simplified query containment approach based on the concept of LDAP templates is proposed.
