Done, Just time

The first SPECweb test has been done on one ESX virtual machine. Only QoS does not meet the requirement with 20 sessions but on Solaris Container within TC it is qualified. So it comes with the next problem: how to optimize Apache and the webserver to provide the best performance.

What have been learned from Research on Performance Isolation Propterties on Virtualization System
This is an initial approach towards the study of performance isolation properties.
We've touched base with many current popular virtualization systems---how to set up and how to configure.
We obtained the popular industry web server benchmark---SPECweb

More than that:
Proficient in setting up Linux, actually fedora. The Linux installation, the network setup, the webserver setup.
Familiar with Apache operations and configurations, especially apache configuration. The module combined, the access controlled, the syntax pattern.
Manual fast_cgi. How to patch and how to add it as a new module

A lot to dig in:
Apache access control, multiple web directory
SElinux configuration and control
Fast_cgi working mechanism, how to execute script in web server
Optimize web serivce and minimize Linux Kernel
