Web 2.0 Challenge: More Scripts, More Formats

7

Web 2.0 Challenge: Browser Limitations

Connection #1. OK

Connection #2. OK

Connection #3. TIME OUT.

…slows down applications…leads to unresponsive applications

8

Web 2.0 Challenge: Longer Sessions, More Connections, More Requests

…supports fewer concurrent users…consumes more server resources

Server sends back response that tricks client into modifying existing behavior of client

Client makes a request to load a page

Client sends data to server

Client is tricked into sending same data to another server

ATTACK SUCCESSFUL!

Web 2.0 Challenge: JavaScript Execution

The Application Delivery Challenge

Keeping up with a rapidly evolving set of applications, protocols, and security risks while maintaining existing application availability and security

And you can’t make the day longer than 24 hours although you can have an extra day every 4 years*
