Re: What's the web server used in the Nova API server?

 

Hi Michael,

we deploy with an Apache + mod_proxy in front of all the nova APIs
processes. It works reasonably well. For Horizon we use Apache + WSGI mod
(well... everybody knows Horizon is a different beast...).

Tomcat is a different beast, for JVM stuff, you know. Openstack is python.

Cheers
Diego
