What Is Fire Site

FireSite™ Web Site Accelerator FireSite Web Site Accelerator is a powerful new software package that lets you run a high-performance Web server using affordable Internet lines such as ISDN or regular modem lines! • If you already run a Web server, FireSite will dramatically accelerate your Web sites, using your existing Internet connection. FireSite is compatible with Internet connections from 28.8Kbps modems through T-1 lines and beyond. FireSite typically provides a 5x increase in traffic capacity, and a 3x increase in page delivery speed. • If you don't run your own Web server (yet), FireSite makes it simple and affordable to get started. FireSite-powered Web sites are fully interactive and dynamic, serve pages at T-1 speeds, and typically cost less than US$140 per month. All you need to get started is a Mac and a modem! FireSite™ Virtual Domain Manager FireSite Virtual Domain Manager is a the Web's most advanced single-IP-address "virtual domain" system, allowing you to host multiple Web sites on a single Web server, using only a single IP address. FireSite VDM is available as a stand-alone product, and is also available in most FireSite Web Site Accelerator packages. If you are going to host more than five virtual sites, we recommend a combination package, including both FireSite VDM and the FireSite acceleration system. ________________________________________ FireSite ™ Blazing Web Site Accelerator FireSite is a patented new system for serving interactive Web sites faster and more affordably than ever before.
