Compression

Advantage Database Server

Default = Internet

Valid values include:

Internet–Use compression for ADS_AIS_SERVER (Internet) connections.

Always–Use compression unless the client specifically turns it off.

Never–Do not allow compression for any connections. This setting overrides any client compression settings.

This value controls whether or not compression is used for communications between client and server. In general, it makes sense to use compression when the network is the bottleneck (e.g., connections through a 56K modem). See Communications Compression for more information.
