Comment Comment by pjmlp Ah, the memories.The startup I joined in 1999 had its own application server loosely based on AOLServer architecture.We had Apache + mod_tcl, IIS with our own ISAPI extension, then in box connections for all major RDMS across all key UNIXes and Windows NT/2000.Some left to join companies doing Vignette projects, others eventually created OutSystems redoing the same ideas, but with the newly released .NET.However it was also a lesson in performance issues, and the constant pressure to rewrite Tcl code into C extensions. parent pjmlp 1 month ago
The startup I joined in 1999 had its own application server loosely based on AOLServer architecture.
We had Apache + mod_tcl, IIS with our own ISAPI extension, then in box connections for all major RDMS across all key UNIXes and Windows NT/2000.
Some left to join companies doing Vignette projects, others eventually created OutSystems redoing the same ideas, but with the newly released .NET.
However it was also a lesson in performance issues, and the constant pressure to rewrite Tcl code into C extensions.
