Host Python Applications Better With mod_wsgi
As I was browsing, I came across an article used to host python web applications better. The module called 'mod_wsgi' is a new&better apache module than mod_python when hosting django/python apps. I haven't personally tried it (maybe I will this coming weekend) but the comments by other people are very interesting. Anyway to give you some short round-up, this are the things that it can do:
- Can serve dynamic content by about 100-150% faster compare to mod_python
- Consumes less memory
- Secure (Don't know yet why it's secure)
