 GeoServer, MapServer, and ArcGIS Server will be competing for the title of "Fastest Web Map Server (WMS)" at the FOSS4G 2009 conference at the end of October. The Web Mapping Performance Shoot-out compares Web Map Servers in a variety of real world use cases.

 This third installment of the FOSS4G shoot-out looks to be even more exciting with the introduction of a team from ESRI.  "ESRI supports interoperability with the OSGeo and open source community" says Satish Sankaran, PhD., ESRI Product Manager for Interoperability, " and, as such, are happy to participate in the OSGEO demonstration-'shootout' at FOSS4G.  We are also participating in the OGC's Climate Change Integration Plugfest at FOSS4G, and with our colleagues from 52North who will be in the technical exhibits area."
-The performance shoot-out will see GeoServer, MapServer, and ArcGIS Server compared in terms of how long they take to generate a map image, from a common set of spatial data.  The data formats used will be shapefile, geotiff, ECW, PostgreSQL/PostGIS, Oracle Spatial, and SDE on Oracle.  Benchmarking scripts will be executed on a common platform running Red Hat Linux.  Hardware and infrastructure for benchmark testing has been provided by the US Army Corps of Engineers Remote Sensing GIS Center.

 GeoServer will be represented by Andrea Aime (OpenGeo) and Simone Giannecchini (GeoSolutions).  "With the rapid expansion of GeoServer's capabilities each year, these benchmarking exercises are an excellent forum for us to test it in new and challenging ways," said Chris Holmes, Managing Director of OpenGeo and founder of the GeoServer project.

-One of the most important 'rules of engagement' for each Web server team is that all parties must contribute any changes that they make to their software for this exercise, back to their community.  As explained by Steve Lime, founder of Mapserver, "Past benchmarking presentations have brought about many improvements in the servers, such as MapServer's improvements in large shapefile indexing, raster read optimization, and labeling placement.  The MapServer Project Steering Committee is excited to help with this presentation again."
