Book Description

The concept of a "web server" has become fuzzy because the server is now entwined with the dynamic requirements of web applications. Handling a request is no longer the simple process of "send back the content of this file", but instead involves routing the request to the web application, which, among other things, determines where the content comes from.

In Web Servers Succinctly, author Marc Clifton provides great insights on the benefits of building your own web server, and covers different options available for threading, work processes, session management, routing, and security.
