10. Dynamic vs Static HTML
• Features limited to
browser resources.
• Need developer
intervention to change
the content
• Response is always
HTML no matter what.
• Is/Can be cached by the
browser
• You can add some
dynamic features with
Javascript and HTML5
• Tons of libraries to everything
we know that can be done in
Web.
• Content can vary based on a
database change, another site,
the date, no need for developer
intervention
• Response could be anything
that the browser can show for
the same URL. Its generated
dynamically.
• You have to control when to
expire or cache the response
Static Dynamic
11. ●Limited to the
Browser’ resources
(powerful with
HTML5)
●The Web Server looks
for the resource as a
persistent file on disk.
●A Web Server is
enough to serve the
content
●There is no need for
programming skills
●There is no limit (almost) on
what you can do on the Server's
side
●The resource to process is not
always an specific file in the
web server (dynamic).
●Usually depends on a Web and
an Application Server to serve
content
●Requires a high level
programming code
..cont Dynamic vs Static HTML
Static Dynamic
12. What’s involved in the Dynamic
Content?
• Web Server
• Application Server
• Server Side Coding
– Programming Languages
– Server Side Libraries
– Services
– Configuration Settings
• Other Services
– DBMS (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Oracle)
– Cache (Memcached, Redis)
– Logging
– Third Party APIs
14. 1) The Web Server
The term is used to reference Hardware or software that
servers Web content
15. Web Server’s Job
• Listen and Responds to HTTP Requests
• Find resource/file to load based on the request (URL).
• Process the file to load
• Delegate the file processing to an Application Server if
needed (when it can’t handle it).
• Build a response that the browser can read.
– HTML, image, file to download
– Redirect
• Examples: Apache, IIS, Nginx, ligthhttpd
16. cont..
• Files are stored on an specific directory within the Web
Server’s hard drive (DocumentRoot)
• Web Server should be running and listening to an specific
port (80 by default)
• Configuration files used to configure the server behavior
(httpd.conf)
17.
18. 2) Application Server
Their main job is to support the construction of dynamic
pages. It could be a service running on the same Web
Server or standalone.
19. ..cont
●An application server acts as a set of components
accessible to the software developer through an API
defined by the platform itself.
●These components are usually performed in the same
running environment as its web server(s)
●Target much more than just Web page generation: they
implement services like clustering, fail-over, and load-
balancing.
20. ..cont
●Provides access to business logic for use by client
application programs.
●Infinite set of libraries and components for Database
Access, Security, Clustering,
●Some examples: Zend Server (PHP), IBM Websphere (Java
EE), Tomcat (Java), .NET framework (C#), Passenger (RoR),
Node (Javascript), Oracle Weblogic (Java), Glassfish (Java),
JBoss (Java), Unicorn (RoR), Puma (RoR)
21. 3) Server Side Code
• Application server is able to run Programming Languages
that run on the Server
• Some examples: PHP, JSP, ASP, Ruby, Python, Perl, even
Javascript (NodeJS)
• How does server side code looks:
