Just curious, whats the reason we went with rolling our own instead of using something like nginx/apache2/etc w/ mod_wsgi? On Jan 16, 2012, at 2:14 AM, Thierry Carrez wrote: Joe Smithian wrote: I browsed the openStack documentation but couldn't find information about the Nova API server.

Hi Michael, we deploy with an Apache + mod_proxy in front of all the nova APIs processes. It works reasonably well. For Horizon we use Apache + WSGI mod (well... everybody knows Horizon is a different beast...). Tomcat is a different beast, for JVM stuff, you know. Openstack is python. Cheers

It's not like we wrote our own webserver :) Eventlet has a wsgi container. We just went ahead and used it. Not only does it perform very well, it's also very straightforward to use for testing (compared to having to install and configure Apache to get going).. 2012/1/16 Michael Basnight

Hi all, I browsed the openStack documentation but couldn't find information about the Nova API server. What's the web server used in the Nova API server? Can we use a different web server such as Apache or Tomcat? I'd appreciate your comments. Regards Joe Smithian
