Plug In on WebSphere Application Server

The IBM WebSphere Application Server Web server plug-in is the “glue” between a Web server and WebSphere Application Server. The primary responsibility of the plug-in is to forward HTTP requests from the Web server to the WebSphere Application Server.

The plug-in can also perform load balancing to backend application servers. It can also maintain session affinity to these servers, and failover if a backend application server is non-responsive.

An in-depth understanding of the plug-in will not only help you troubleshoot plug- in-related issues more quickly, but it will also help you make better application architecture decisions.
