x0d is a thin low-latency and scalable HTTP web server built on-top
of the Xzero C++ HTTP Framework.
It supports a very expressive and natural configuration via the Flow configuration language and a number of standard plugins to become your web application server.
- Customizable Error Pages
- Automatic Directory Indexing
- on-the-fly executable upgrade with gracefully finishing currently active requests.
- Easily Extensible via the Powerful Plugin System
- SSL connection encryption
- SSL Server Name Indication (SNI) extension
- Dynamic Content Compression
- Advanced Dynamic Load Balancer
- Supporting different backend transports (TCP/IP, and UNIX Domain Sockets).
- Supporting different backend protocols (HTTP and FastCGI)
- Advanced Health Monitoring
- JSON API for retrieving state, stats, and reconfiguring clusters (including adding/updating/removing backends).
- Client Side Routing support
- Sticky Offline Mode
- X-Sendfile support, full static file transmission acceleration
- HAproxy compatible CSV output
- Object Cache
- fully runtime configurable
- client-cache aware
- life JSON stats
- supports serving stale objects when no backend is available
Varyresponse-header Support.- multiple update strategies (locked, shadowed)
- Basic Authentication
- including PAM authentication
- Request Path Aliasing
- Automatic Directory Listing
- Apache-style access logging
- User-directory Support
- Browser Match Support
- Customizable Expires & Cache-Control Response Header Control
- instant mode (configuration-less basic HTTP serving)
- CGI/1.1 Support
- gcc >= 4.8.0 (for building only, CLANG >= 3.5 is also supported)
- cmake (for building only)
- zlib (optional & recommended, for compression)
- OpenSSL (optional & recommended, for SSL/TLS encryption)
- gtest (optional, for unit testing)
