Topic Map Server Language?

Filed under: Erlang,Topic Map Software — Patrick Durusau @ 3:21 pm

I ran across a comparison of the Apache web server and Yaws the other day.

Apache vs. Yaws

I haven’t given web servers much thought and had someone asked (apologies to friends at MS) I would have said Apache, just by default.

It is what I remember from web work when I was concerned about that sort of thing.

Anyway, I am looking at this comparison and Apache falls over on its side at about 8,000 concurrent sessions and Yaws is humming along at 80,000.

That’s quite a difference.

Enough of a difference that Erlang, the language in which Yaws was written, should be seriously considered for topic map engines.
