FastCGI Development Kit.
|
|
|
|
FastCGI is a fast, open, and secure Web server interface that solves the
|
|
performance problems inherent in CGI, without introducing the overhead and
|
|
complexity of proprietary APIs (Application Programming Interfaces).
|
|
|
|
FastCGI allows for many nice features such as persistent CGI applications
|
|
(eliminating process creation time per request) and being able run CGI
|
|
applications on hosts remote to the web server itself.
|
|
|
|
Most web servers have optional or add-on support for FastCGI. Applications
|
|
which are developed with FastCGI behave as standard CGIs when invoked by web
|
|
servers without FastCGI support. In other words, if the server supports
|
|
FastCGI, then FastCGI applications get all the perks (mainly being *really*
|
|
fast); if the server does not support FastCGI, then FastCGI applications
|
|
behave exactly like standard CGIs.
