The uWSGI project aims at developing a full stack for building (and hosting) clustered/distributed network applications.
Mainly targeted at the web and its standards, it has been successfully used in a lot of different contexts.
Thanks to its pluggable architecture it can be extended without limits to support more platforms and languages. Currently, you can write plugins in C, C++ and Objective-C.
The "WSGI" part in the name is a tribute to the namesake Python standard, as it has been the first developed plugin for the project.
Versatility, performance, low-resource usage and reliability are the strengths of the project (and the only rules followed).
The Core (implements configuration, processes management, sockets creation, monitoring, logging, shared memory areas, ipc, cluster membership and the SubscriptionSystem)
Request plugins (implement application server interfaces for various languages and platforms: WSGI, PSGI, Rack, Lua WSAPI, CGI, PHP, Go ...)
Gateways (implement load balancers, proxies and routers)
The Emperor <Emperor> (implements massive instances management and monitoring)
Loop engines (implement concurrency, components can be run in preforking, threaded, asynchronous/evented and green thread/coroutine modes. Various technologies are supported, including uGreen, Greenlet, Stackless, Gevent <Gevent>, Goroutines and Fibers)
Note
With a large open source project such as uWSGI the code and the documentation may not always be in sync. The mailing list is the best source for help regarding uWSGI.
