HTTP push - Via proxy

S

SPG

Hi,

After many useful replies to my previous posts on the NG (thanks by the
way), I now have a demo server that is able to push chunked data back to a
client using the response output stream.

Now, the problem is the blasted proxies!
I am seeing our proxy buffer the response from my server. The problem is we
need to push price feed data to the client as it happens. For reasons I will
not go into, TCP/IP is not an option, so please just accept that.

I have tried all the relevant HTTP 1.1 headers.. "no-cache" and "no-store"
etc etc..

Is there actually any way in a response to force the data through a proxy
using code?
We have no control over the rpoxy settings. We have 10,000+ clients all
distributed around the world who have their own proxy servers in place. What
we need is a succdessful way to force this data to the client (in say 90% of
all cases!) just by what is being sent to the client?

I am starting to feel that this is not going to be possible, but if anyone
has a solution here, I would be most pleased. By the way, if there are any
licensable products able to do this, we would consider them too.

Cheers,

Steve
