Welcome to the Last Mile ISP project PDF Print E-mail

The Last Mile ISP project is growing up on the top of the Dynagzip Project. This commercial project targets the improvement of Internet content delivery toward the end users, specifically on slow PPP (dial-up) connections.

Using this state-of-the-art solution the service provider benefits from:

  • The higher customer satisfaction, because the end users experience the significantly faster download of the Internet content.
  • Less expenditures on required equipments due to lower volume of required buffers to store the temporary content, synchronizing the speed of PPP connections with the back-bone Internet.

The solution is based on dynamic data compression at the point of the stream's bottleneck on the site of the ISP. This solution does not conflict with the traditional PPP data compression used in modern modems. Instead, it compliments one, contributing significantly to the effective speed improvement. Users used to experience the download time reduction by 2-10 times on regular web pages after implementation of this technique. No changes required on client side.

Other competing methods are based on static data compression.

Peter J. Cranstone wrote to the mod_gzip@lists.over.net mailing list on May 21, 2002 addressing the implementation of mod_gzip:

...With 98% of the world on a dial up modem, all they care about is how long it takes to download a page. It doesn't matter if it consumes a few more CPU cycles if the customer is happy. It's cheaper to buy a newer faster box, than it is to acquire new customers."

The advantages of our dynamic compression include:

  • Reduced latency, because Apache::Dynagzip transfers the stream immediately, compressing data on-the-fly.
  • Less expenditures on equipments due to lower size of required buffers to store temporary data.

This our solution is accomplished with the guarantee of the author of Apache::Dynagzip that the particular needs of the customers will be addressed appropriately through the necessary changes in the base code of the module if required, so that further modification of Apache::Dynagzip would be always compatible with that requirements.

Adjustments for the variety of proxies are available upon request.
