Reduce Database Load with BLOB Externalization

Migrate BLOBs out of your database to reduce its size by 95%. Also reduce database transaction load because BLOB operations no longer go to the database and it is now able to speed up regular SharePoint queries and updates.

  • Migrate BLOBs out of database without any downtime
  • Store BLOBs in file system, SAN storage, or NAS storage
  • Compress BLOBs with GZip compression optionally, * EBS Size filter
  • Encrypt BLOBs with DES-64bit or AES-128bit encryption
  • * Image Combining (Dynamic CSS Sprites)
  • * SharePoint Monitoring Tool
  • Revert tool provide to put all BLOBs back in your database
  • 100% SharePoint compatible. SharePoint 2010 support also coming

Distributed Cache for BLOBs, Lists, & Session State

Use an extremely fast in-memory distributed cache on your web front end (WFE) servers to boost SharePoint performance and scalability. NCachePoint internally uses NCache, industry’s leading .NET distributed cache.

  • Automatically cache BLOBs and reduce expensive file server trips
  • Cache frequently used Lists and reduce expensive database trips
  • Store ASP.NET Session State in a highly reliable cache with replication
  • Use InProc, OutProc, or Distributed Cache with intelligent replication

View State Caching & JavaScript Minification

Optimize content delivery by reducing amount of data sent to client’s browsers and also reducing the number of trips a browser makes for loading an ASP.NET page in SharePoint.

  • Cache ASP.NET View State and reduce payload sent to the client
  • Cache View State to be used in subsequent post-backs
  • Minify Javascript by removing redundant white spaces to reduce the file size
  • Merge multiple JavaScript/CSS files and deliver in one HTTP request
