What is L7 Compression?
Compression is one of the important ways to increase the performance of an Backend Service that provides web services. When L7 level compression is performed on the vServices created on the TR7 ASP device, requests from clients are compressed on the TR7 ASP devices according to the specified file types and transmitted to the Backend Services. In this way, the size of some files is reduced by up to 70% and the capacity requirement in the bandwidth is reduced. The most commonly used Gzip and Deflate compression algorithms are supported by the TR7 ASP.
