Hi there, you may also just serve both your static files and django through one apache instance – makes for simple setup and you’ll know when you need something more complicated.

It is fantastic). On Mon, Apr 30, 2012 at 11:21 PM, HarpB <[email protected]> wrote: It is much better to use Apache for static files than Django. You can still run DJango for data validation, but all static content is typically served via Apache. In your virtualhost, you should proxy the /static/ endpoint to the /static/ folder in Django app. On Sunday, April 29, 2012 5:39:15 AM UTC-7, collectiveSQL wrote: Hi Everyone, I'm working on a heavily animated web site using the html5 canvas tag. Its mainly made of html, javascript and css static files and I'd like to integrate the Google Identity Toolkit for an Oauth 2.0 account chooser for signup and registration. The first question is Django a good candidate for serving up mainly static files and using a small Django app for authentication? And secondly what performance impact would this have over straight apache? More info: 1. Static web files such as html, javascript and css are stored on Amazon AWS S3 2. Data is loaded via oData using jsdata for animations 3. Amazon AWS EC2 is used to scale apache web servers Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
