If data caching feature is enabled in Web server, but if it does not work due to improper configuration or unsupported platform (such as Unix, Linux), then the Application Server data cache is automatically enabled. [b] .NET (IIS) Version supports only Microsoft Active Directory, while J2EE edition supports IBM LDAP, Netscape LDAP, Sun LDAP, and Microsoft Active Directory. |
