| 软件简介: |
Lighttpd是一个德国人领导的开源软件,其根本的目的是提供一个专门针对高性能网站,安全、快速、兼容性好并且灵活的web server环境。具有非常低的内存开销,cpu占用率低,效能好,以及丰富的模块等特点。lighttpd是众多OpenSource轻量级的web server中较为优秀的一个。支持FastCGI, CGI, Auth, 输出压缩(output compress), URL重写, Alias等重要功能,而Apache之所以流行,很大程度也是因为功能丰富,在lighttpd上很多功能都有相应的实现了,这点对于apache的用户是非常重要的,因为迁移到lighttpd就必须面对这些问题。
Lighttpd 1.4.30 主要变化:
[mod_auth] Fix signedness error in http_auth (CVE-2011-4362) ssl: disable client initiated renegotiations ssl: support mitigating BEAST attack fix connection stalls
主要功能 高级特性 虚拟主机 virtual directory listings URL-Rewriting,HTTP-Redirects automatic expiration offiles 大文件支持(64bit file offsets) 断点续传(start-end,start-,-end,multipleranges) 压缩输出(支持deflate,gzip,bzip2) 认证方法 basic,digest backends:plainfiles,htpasswd,htdigest,ldap fastand secure application controlled downloads Server Side Includes User Tracking FastCGI,CGI,SSI SSL PHP支持 same speed as or faster than apache+mod_php4 includes a utility to spawn FastCGI processes(neccesaryforPHP4.3.x) 通过FastCGI和CGI接口实现 支持PHP代码缓存,例如XCache,APC或eAccelarator FastCGI负载均衡(one webserver distibutes request to multiple PHP-serversviaFastCGI) Security, speed, compliance, and flexibility -- all of these describe lighttpd (pron. lighty) which is rapidly redefining efficiency of a webserver; as it is designed and optimized for high performance environments. With a small memory footprint compared to other web-servers, effective management of the cpu-load, and advanced feature set (FastCGI, SCGI, Auth, Output-Compression, URL-Rewriting and many more) lighttpd is the perfect solution for every server that is suffering load problems. And best of all it s Open Source licensed under the revised BSD license. lighttpd powers several popular Web 2.0 sites like YouTube, wikipedia and meebo. Its high speed io-infrastructure allows them to scale several times better with the same hardware than with alternative web-servers. |
