Apache Split within BI 4.2

[former_member520567]

Hello colleagues,

I was reading the article "Improving the User Experience in SAP BI Platform - BI 4.1 and Apache 2.4 Supplement" based on "Improving the User Experience in SAP BI Platform 4.0 with Apache and WDeploy" wrote by james.rapp, found it very interesting, something that I want to try in our landscape, but we recently upgraded our landscape to BI 4.2 SP04, the doubt that comes now, if is still applicable?, since now's using Tomcat 8.5 version.

Just to confirm that I can implement the configuration steps provided.

Thanks,

Roy Garcia

Tomcat 8 and Java 8 do improve a lot of performance things, however, split deployment can still be beneficial, as you're still delegating static content to web server, which is still better at serving it.

However, when you have a doubt - why don't you try it and report if you saw any benefit or not ?
This could be a very nice blog.

Thanks Denis, I will implement this configuration soon, most likely at the beginning of next year and share the results to confirm any improvement. Sorry for not answering earlier, but I've been bussy with other projects, I'll share the results once is done.

Regards!

Roy
