Description
H2O represents a modern HTTP server that significantly enhances user response times while minimizing CPU usage compared to traditional web servers. Built from scratch, it leverages the advanced capabilities of HTTP/2, such as prioritized content delivery and server push, ensuring an exceptional experience for website visitors. It features comprehensive support for dependency and weight-based prioritization through server-side configurations. Thanks to community contributions, H2O is available as a binary package in various environments, allowing for an initial installation via your preferred package manager before considering a source installation. It is generally advisable to use LibreSSL for running H2O, as it is deemed more secure than OpenSSL and supports additional ciphersuites. Ultimately, choosing H2O can lead to improved performance and security for your web applications.
Description
This project's primary aim is to excel in a singular task: effectively serving static web directories. Many existing solutions tend to be overly complicated with features like CGI support and reliance on third-party libraries, or they fall short by lacking essential functionalities such as TLS, virtual hosts, or support for partial content. Quark seeks to strike a balance by focusing solely on static content while still incorporating advanced features typically found in more cumbersome alternatives, all while prioritizing security through methods such as chroot, privilege dropping, and strict parsing without dynamic memory allocation. We maintain that the majority of the web can operate without dynamic components, arguing that the escalating complexity of server-side applications significantly contributes to the web's growing inefficiency. In contemporary practices, the trend leans towards handling everything server-side, from parsing requests to altering files and databases, and generating HTML, often using inappropriate languages like PHP or JavaScript, which leads to significant security vulnerabilities and inefficiencies. By simplifying these processes, we aim to create a more streamlined and secure web environment.
