stronglytyped.org - Web site powered by Ada Web Server (AWS)

[Tero Koskinen]

Hi,

I know that there is already some sites running AWS[1],
but they are still somewhat rare, so I decided to share
my site, stronglytyped.org.

The site is running on a Linux-based Virtual Private Server (VPS),
which actually hosts three web sites:

  http://www.stronglytyped.org/
    - the main site, currently no content, just links to Ada resources

  http://ahven.stronglytyped.org/
    - web pages for my unit testing framework

  http://tkoskine.iki.fi/
    - my personal homepage

Technical details:
This all is done using AWS' virtual hosting capabilities and there
is NO other web server (like Apache or lighttpd) used.  The executable
runs under restricted account and I forward port 80 to the actual
server port using iptables. (Because ports below 1024 are available
only for root.)

The VPS is Linode 360 setup from linode.com and it is running Debian
stable.

In addition, there is subdomain http://hg.stronglytyped.org/
which hosts some of my public Ada code, but it is served externally
by http://bitbucket.org/ (Python/Django-powered site).

Oh, and special thanks to Debian Ada maintainers, who provide
a nice set of Ada packages (including AWS) working out of the box.

Congratulations on the new AWS powered site Tero. I'll look forward to 
following its growth.  :o)

http://ada-dk.org is also hosted on a Linode 360 setup. They do indeed 
provide a great service at a very reasonable price.

Tero,

Thanks for sharing these links. Nice to see some public AWS hosted web
sites!

Thanks for that.  I do not ask or receive payment for all that work;
my only reward is this kind of recognition, so your post is very
motivating.  I uploaded AWS 2.7 to unstable just a few days ago.

Also, you are now correct to use the plural since several people have
started contributing to Ada in Debian.  I am proud of my apprentices
and I hope they grow into full Debian Developers one day :)

FWIW, blazedialer.com is also an AWS site, but I can't give out a
login for exploring it.

The photo critic oriented Web site http://v2p.fr.eu.org (fully GPL) is
also AWS based. It is for french speakers though.

We are using Google code to host it:

   http://code.google.com/p/vision2pixels/

It is possible to download sources from Git repository or to explorer
the sources there:

   http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=v2p.git

Pascal.
