There are a lot of opinions being thrown about as if they're the absolute truth, and I'm afraid it may be confusing people. I can't speak officially for Pylons (only Ben can), but I can say that Pylons has been deployed on PasteHTTPServer, CherryPy, mod_wsgi, mod_proxy, nginx, and others, and all have been stable and are reasonable choices. It's not true that "embedded mode is bad", "daemon mode is even more stupid", or "Paste and CP3 are not meant to be used in the deployment phase" (especially CP3). They may be too underperformant for certain situations, but that does not make them bad across the board even if certain people think so. The argument against PasteHTTPServer and CherryPy3 seems to be efficiency. The arguments against mod_wsgi and daemon mode seem to be ideological. (And I'm lost now: if you don't have mod_wsgi and you don't have an application daemon, what other choice is there?) -- Mike Orr <[email protected]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
