bandwidth

In this article I'll show you a simple approach to enable your Zend Framework application saving lots of precious bandwidth, and thus, making it more end-users friendly, and save on bandwidth costs.

This technique involves HTTP conditional GET. This is basically a feature of the HTTP protocol. By sending correct HTTP headers with your application, you enable browsers of your end users to cache pages of your site.

Are you worried about users having old versions of page in cache? Then don't! This technique allows to get all the benefits of client side caching without affecting anything but 5 minutes of your time to integrate it.

This document is meant for IP Masquerade users who want to limit specific host's bandwidth.
The example made throughout the document is a aDSL line (640Kbits download / 160Kbits upload) where the DHCP hosts of the subnet are bandwidth limited and also forced through a cachine proxy.
