This list compares the features and functionality of application servers, grouped by the hosting environment that is offered by that particular application server.

BASIC

  • Run BASIC - An all-in-one BASIC scriptable application server, can automatically manage session and state

C

  • Enduro/X - A middleware platform for distributed transaction processing, based on XATMI and XA standards, open source, C API

C++

  • Tuxedo - Based on the ATMI standard, is one of the original application servers.
  • Tntnet - Includes a template engine which allows embedding C++ code in HTML pages. Templates are compiled before run-time, and thus very fast. Multi-threaded, supports object lifetime via scoped variables.
  • Wt - A web toolkit similar to Qt permitting GUI-application-like web development with built-in Ajax abilities.
  • POCO C++ Libraries - A set of open source class libraries including Poco.Net.HTTPServer.html
  • CppCMS
  • uWSGI
  • Enduro/X - A middleware platform for distributed transaction processing, based on XATMI and XA standards, open source

Go

  • Enduro/X ASG - Application server for Go. This provides XATMI and XA facilities for Golang. Go application can be built by normal Go executable files which in turn provides stateless services, which can be load balanced, clustered and reloaded on the fly without service interruption by means of administrative work only. Framework provides distributed transaction processing facility for Go.
