Based on the SMT multithreading kernel from iMatix, the Xitami ['shi-tami']
|
|
web server is scalable and efficient, especially at high loads. Unlike Apache,
|
|
NCSA httpd, Netscape's Enterprise Server, or IIS, Xitami handles all
|
|
connections (except CGI) within a single process, without creating child
|
|
processes or multiple threads. The cost of a connection ('hit') is extremely
|
|
low.
|
|
|
|
Xitami supports the main HTTP operations: GET, POST, HEADER. It also supports
|
|
virtual hosts, CGI, clickable image maps, CERN/NCSA logging, log cycling,
|
|
protected directories, direct execution of Perl programs, and browser-based
|
|
configuration and management. It does not support secure sockets.
|
|
|
|
Xitami is available for multiple platforms (UNIX, OpenVMS, Win 3.x, Win 95,
|
|
Win NT, OS/2) and is free software. Please read the Xitami license agreement
|
|
for details.
