mod_perl brings together the full power of the Perl programming language
|
|
|
|
|
and the Apache HTTP server. You can use Perl to manage Apache, respond to
|
|
|
|
|
requests for web pages and much more.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mod_perl gives you a persistent Perl interpreter embedded in your web
|
|
|
|
|
server. This lets you avoid the overhead of starting an external interpreter
|
|
|
|
|
and avoids the penalty of Perl start-up time, giving you super-fast
|
|
|
|
|
dynamic content.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As you'd expect from the Perl community, there are hundreds of modules
|
|
|
|
|
written for mod_perl, everything from persistent database connections, to
|
|
|
|
|
templating sytems, to complete XML content delivery systems. Web sites like
|
|
|
|
|
Slashdot and Wired Magazine use mod_perl.
