PreAuthenticate and UnsafeAuthenticatedConnectionSharing

[Chris Marisic]

When using RavenDB to be accessed only in Server to Server communication (MVC web app mediates all access to RavenDB) what are the optimal settings for

            store.JsonRequestFactory.ConfigureRequest += (sender, e) =>
                                                             {
                                                                 var httpWebRequest = ((HttpWebRequest) e.Request);
                                                                 httpWebRequest.UnsafeAuthenticatedConnectionSharing = ?;
                                                                 httpWebRequest.PreAuthenticate = ?;
                                                             };

Is the RavenDB server local to the one with the MVC app?

[Oren Eini (Ayende Rahien)]

You can try setting both of them to true, that should help performance some.

The RavenDB server has affinity only to the MVC app, no other access points. The server might reside on the same machine, or it might reside on a seperate machine in the same data center.
