Frequently Asked Questions
(sorted by frequency)
What is G-WAN?
G-WAN is a small-footprint (100 KB) Web server with full ANSI-C scripts run in real-time (no compiler needed). G-WAN C scripts are as fast as static pages.
Why bother to create another platform?
Other Web Application servers don't perform well -even on high-end hardware. I liked the simplicity of C -and it has more than decently fit the task.
Why is G-WAN safer than others?
Thousands of times less code also means less bugs. ANSI C does not suffer from recurring implementation security holes . And crash-proof dynamic buffers are as safe (and faster) than garbage collection.
Are G-WAN-based programs as fast as G-WAN?
As all the 'infrastructure' code (client/server, RPC, security, etc.) is done by G-WAN, your applications directly benefit from its performances.
Who will benefit from using G-WAN?
Start-ups' shortest path to realization and Incumbants' best way to save, Students' most efficient playground and End-users' safest protection, G-WAN helps you to shine -even when the sun doesn't.
How much does it cost?
G-WAN is free for all. G-WAN's advanced features will either be paid or free -depending on users' willingness to contribute to the success of other users.
Will Mac OS/X, BSD, Solaris, etc. be supported?
G-WAN's small footprint and modularity make it easy to port on any platform. The Linux and Windows versions were made available in less than one year.
