Basics of server side web programming

Obiettivi di apprendimento

  1. become aware of the possibilities to create dynamic content within a webserver
  2. see that you don't have to implement a webserver to be able to serve dynamic content
  3. understand some main issues like blocking I/O that one should keep in mind when doing server side programming
  4. see how the web server is the entry point for web applications
  5. whitelisting of input vs blacklisting and a method of preventing XSS

Quiz

1 Why is server side programming useful?

Generate dynamic content (like pulling content from databases and put them to HTML templates)
React to HTTP headers
Allow for personalization (recommender engines)
Enable features like search

2 What should be kept in mind when doing server side programming

Web servers should communicate with the databases in a synchronous way creating blocking I/O to increase the consistency of the web application
The programs and scripts on the server should be running in a few milliseconds
The more complex your scripts the easier your web servers are a target for a denial of service attack
Web servers should support cross side scripting
