Solid.net Server Side Programming Services

Server side programs are those programs that run on the server to produce dynamic content for web sites. We believe that our knowledge of the whole range of standard UNIX server programs allows us to produce custom solutions at a more reasonable cost than others may be able to do. For example, we have a number of sites that use majordomo (a mail list program) and a slightly nonstandard sendmail (the program that delivers email) configuration to obtain records for a database. Our web server has been configured to run a perl program for any reference to the site. The perl program makes SQL queries and creates dynamic webpages for the user. By using standard utilities as much as possible we reduce the initial cost of the project and make it much more maintainable as system upgrades occur.

We are working on a number of case studies to give examples of our work in this area. They should be online shortly.

Until we get our examples on line, if you would like to discuss our work in this area, please send an email message to newservice@solid.net with a note about what services you would like to discuss.
