Hi All,
Im busy conducting an analysis on some python web
appplication servers.
I have a few questions with regard to WebWare:
1> How scalable is WebWare (& how)?
2> With regard to "web application standards" how does it
comply:
- HTTP protocol support -- to my knowledge it compies with the 1.1 standard, but someone else may have to correct me on this one. I've never had a http protocol compliance issue with it
- server-side code execution -- All of webware is done on the server side
so I'm not usere what youre asking,l if you can do it in python it can be done
in webware
- client-side code execution -- Waht ever client side code you have
rendered into your webpages will be run by the client, assusmen their browser
supports what ou need. Webware itslef does not have anything in it that makes
client side coding either easier or harder
- easy integration of javascript for client side
checking -- its as easy or difficult at you want to make it. i use cheetah
templates with webware and commonly user javascript in most of my web apps with
no difficulty.
- any database adapters provided by the framework -- Webware is written in
python, so you have access to the full set of python tools including a full set
of DB2 compliant database tools for just about any database you want to connect
to. I commonly use Webware with MySQL and PostgreSQL as well as occationaly
Oracle. There is also the metakit toolkit which abstracts database
connectivity some. I don't use it so I really can't comment on it.
- communication standards integration -- which standards are you
referring to?
- management tools and remote controls -- none are cuttenly implimented in Webware, it depends on the platform that you are running it on.
3> How well does WebWare rate in the security department? -- The latest code base from the SVN is pretty secure, however that does not mean that you can't write insecure apps.
Thanks
