Dennis,
Are there any Delphi Developers with web sites based on pure Delphi server
technology? Any Indy powered sites? RealThinClient sites? Delphi/Asp.net
sites? Kylix? Delphi/ISAPI/WebBroker sites? How about the good ole
original tServerSocket components? How about Eldos' SecureBlackbox server
tech? And I bet I just forgot five other Delphi technologies out there...
We are doing exactly this for all of our products that need an HTTP/HTTPS
interface - own webserver that's compiled with Delphi for Windows, and
with CrossKylix for Linux.
It's great. It's the best way to create scaling web applications - you
don't waste the server's power with all kinds of module indirections for
each request, and you don't bog down the system with slow server-side
scripting languages, but instead use fast native code.
The reason there are so few people using Delphi for this simply is lack
of marketing for this option by Borland/CodeGear - well, this and the
fact that hosted servers run Linux, and CodeGear has decided to kill Kylix.
Dedicated Windows servers are uncommon, expensive and a nightmare to maintain.
