- [+/-]Two separate web server instances for static files and application requests [Technical requirement] [EPG-12524]
- By default ePages ships with the Apache web server on Linux systems. One instance of this web server handles all requests send to the ePages application, whether it is a request for a static file (like a picture) or a dynamic page (like the Inbox of the MBO). A web server instances spawns serveral sub-threads to be able to serve concurrent client requests.
For dynamic requests a web server module called WebAdapter takes care of all connections between the web server and the ePages application (namely the RequestRouter and the application servers). Depending on the number of web server sub-threads and total number of application servers the one-web server-approach can lead to a lot of open connections consuming a lot of sockets and file descriptors on the Linux host. In very large ePages installations this may lead to scaling problems.
The web server can be installed or configured as a two instance web server now, where one instance acts as the proxy server (serving requests for static files and forwarding dynamic-content requests) and the other instance acts as the dynamic-request-web server (serving all dynamic-content requests). - [+/-]Relevant page element in focus [Design, MBO, Usability] [EPG-12395]

- [+/-]Making ePages ready for IPv6 [Technical requirement] [EPG-9408]

IPv4 is currently the dominant Internet Protocol version, and was the first to receive widespread use. In December 1998, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) designated IPv6 as the successor to version 4 by the publication of a Standards Track specification, RFC 2460.
[...]
During the first decade of operation of the TCP/IP-based Internet, by the late 1980s, it became apparent that methods had to be developed to conserve address space. In the early 1990s, even after the introduction of classless network redesign, it became clear that this would not suffice to prevent IPv4 address exhaustion and that further changes to the Internet infrastructure were needed." See IPv6 for the full article.
