Web caching for database applications with Oracle Web Cache

We discuss several important issues specific to Web caching for content dynamically generated from database applications. We present the techniques employed by Oracle Web Cache to address these issues. They include: content disambiguation based on information in addition to the URL, transparent session management, partial-page caching for personalization, and broad-scope invalidation with performance assurance heuristics.
