Microsoft Application Request Routing 3.0.5311

Microsoft Application Request Routing (ARR) is a software extension for Internet Information Services (IIS) that provides load balancing and caching functionality for web applications. ARR allows administrators to distribute traffic across multiple servers, which can help with performance and reliability.

ARR also includes a caching feature that saves frequently accessed content on the web server, which can speed up response times for users requesting the same content repeatedly.

• ARR supports HTTP and HTTPS protocols.
• It can be used to enable SSL offloading, which can improve server performance by reducing the CPU overhead required to process SSL requests.
• ARR supports cookie-based affinity (aka sticky sessions) which allows users to maintain their session state on the same server throughout their browsing session.

Microsoft Application Request Routing is a powerful tool that can help improve the performance and reliability of your web applications. By distributing traffic across multiple servers and caching frequently accessed content, ARR can help ensure your users have a fast and reliable experience.
