Reverse Proxy with static content

I read with interest the recent posting about Reverse Proxies and wondered
if it is possible to mix static and dynamic content.

If you have a lot of static content on your site it would make sense to keep
it outside the network, and only use the reverse proxy when making dynamic
data calls, but how could that actually work in practise? Is it possible to
mix it up like this?

Re: Reverse Proxy with static content

You could always just serve your dynamic content from another webserver. I
guess it depends on how cleanly you can speerate content from application.

RE: Reverse Proxy with static content

a common approach is to have the reverse proxy cache the static content.

Re: Reverse Proxy with static content

What is the best reverse proxy technology? Can ISA do it all or is there
something better?
