Web-Server Suite -- Software and Components

Web-Server -- Apache HTTP Server

Apache is the most popular Web Server on the Internet, running approximately 2/3rds of all the Websites on the Net. It is a robust commercial-grade Server, capable of operating everything from a personal Website, to a mission-critical Domain of a business.

Features:

• implements the latest protocols, built on Internet standards
• highly configurable and flexible
• feature-full and extensible
• capable of running many Websites from one system
• implements authentication and secured, encrypted communication

Database -- MySQL Database Server

MySQL is one of the most widely used Database Servers. MySQL implements all of the features required to operate and service the data-end of a Website. MySQL can provide the content and record the transactions of a dynamic Website, handling all the management of the data stream.

Database Administration -- phpMyAdmin

phpMyAdmin is a tool that simplifies the administration and management of the MySQL Database Server and its users. phpMyAdmin provides a graphical user interface (GUI) to the Database System. Tasks that would otherwise require MySQL command structure knowledge become rudimentary and point-and-click.

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) Toolkit -- OpenSSL

OpenSSL is the industry standard implementation of the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) network protocols; and of other related cryptography standards. The toolkit comes with a robust application that is capable of private/public key pair creation, encryption and decryption of messages, and certificate generation and processing. The OpenSSL toolkit also includes a full-strength general-purpose cryptography library.

Programming -- PHP

PHP is a widely used Scripting Engine that is especially suited for Website development. PHP code is embedded into the code of server-side pages, enabling the generation of dynamic content that can be shaped and crafted to the task at hand.

Programming -- Perl

Perl is a high-level Programming language that comes in the form of a server-side script. Perl is an extremely powerful and flexible Scripting System that is particularly well suited at lending itself to any task at hand.

Apache module -- mod_ssl

mod_ssl is the Apache interface to OpenSSL, providing strong cryptography support to the Apache Web Server via the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) network protocols. mod_ssl allows the Apache Web Server to create a two-way secured communication stream between the Server and the client browser.

Apache module -- mod_perl

mod_perl integrates the Perl System into the Apache Web Server, expanding on the power and flexibility of the Apache Server. It avoids the overhead and penalty of starting an external interpreter.

Apache module -- mod_deflate

mod_deflate provides an output filter to the Apache Web Server that allows requested content to be compressed before being sent to the client over the network. mod_deflate can reduce output size down to 20% of the original, saving on Server bandwidth and speeding up loading times on the client browser.

Log Analyzer -- Analog

Analog is quoted as being the most popular logfile analyzer in the world. It provides an impressive configuration system, which takes into account factors that other logfile analyzers miss out on, providing clean and accurate results.

Template System -- Smarty *

Smarty provides a Template Engine for PHP that simplifies the task of creating dynamic Websites. Features such as configuration files, template functions, variable modifiers, and pre-compiled templates, make Smarty extremely manageable and scalable for any application.

Template System -- HTML::Template

HTML::Template is a simple and easy to use Template System that utilizes a Perl script to fill an HTML template file, creating dynamic content. Under this system, the Perl code and the HTML text are kept totally separate, allowing you to separate design - the HTML - from the data, which is generated under a Perl script.

Other Components

Numerous other components have been integrated into this package to provide a well-rounded solution. The complete list of all components can be located under the 'DeveloperSide.NET Web-Server Suite' "Specifics" Section.
