Apache as we all know, is a http web-server with seamless integration with php. As both of these are open source projects their development knows no bounds. Most of the web-hosts I have seen provide apache servers as it is much more secure than an IIS server. But, the only place where we lose out is development speed. While we can develop an ASP application in a few minutes, the same would take more time on php.
Apache-ASP
This service I am talking about is called Apache-ASP and is an apache mod which will let you create an ASP port to your apache Web Server with perl scripting. This brings the power of XML Taglibs, XSLT rendering from apache combined with the developer friendliness of ASP into a single powerful platform.
Some of the unique features of Apache-ASP as mentioned in their website are :
- Scripting SYNTAX is Natural and Powerful
- Rich OBJECTS Developer API
- Web Application EVENTS Model
- Modular SSI Decomposition, Code Sharing
- User SESSIONS, CIFS & NFS Cluster Ready
- XML/XSLT Rendering & Custom Tag Technology
- CGI Compatibility
- PERLSCRIPT Compatibility
- Great Open Source SUPPORT
