The YAZ Proxy is highly configurable and can be used in a number of different
applications, ranging from debugging Z39.50-based applications and protecting
overworked servers, to improving the performance of stateless WWW/Z39.50
gateways. Among other features, it includes:
* SRW/SRU server function, to allow any Z39.50 server to also
support the ZiNG protocols
* Load balancing across multiple backend servers
* Session-sharing and pre-initialization to improve performance in
servers with expensive session initialization
* Configurable request filtering, to keep bad requests from reaching
the server
* XML support -- MARC records can be converted to MARCXML, and
XSLT-transformations allow the proxy to support arbitrary
retrieval schemas in XML
* Load governor function limits requests from aggressive batch-mode clients
* Configurable logging
* Efficient multiplexing software enables small memory footprint and
very high performance
