New AWS-based website

[Maciej Sobczak <see.my.homepage@gmail.com>]

I'm pleased to announce the launch of a new Ada-based website:

http://www.vetoteka.pl/

This website is intended for veterinary doctors and their patients and
is supposed to provide new communication channels between them. The
majority of its functionality is hidden behind logins and passwords,
but some part of it is available to general public as well - well, at
least to those who understand Polish. ;-)

The website was implemented with the following software stack: Debian
+ PostgreSQL + AWS. This stack has proved to be a very solid
foundation and the implementation of the complete website was a very
easy-going experience, except for a few small bumps at the beginning
of the road. I believe that the support that these technologies give
to the programmer have no equivalent in the web development ecosystem.
In particular, the myth that dynamically typed languages are better
for web due to the fast turn-around (no compilation needed) is
irrelevant when the actual turn-around of the Ada-based solution is
observed in practice. I can recommend this solution to anybody who
attempts to implement a web service from the ground up.

Please feel free to use this website as a positive example of the Ada-
based (AWS in particular) web development.

I will be happy to share the insight and experience that was gained
during the development of this website - feel free to contact me here
or privately in case of any questions.
