Task 1: Produce a report about principles of web server scripting. Identify some of the main
languages use for web server scripting.
ASP.NET is an open open-source server-side web application
framework designed for web development to produce dynamic
web pages using VBScript. It’s build on the CLR meaning
Common Language Runtime this allows programmers to make
ASP.NET code using any supported .NET language. ASP.NET
was released in 2002 and developed by Microsoft. It can usually
be found on windows based servers with the extension .ASP
standing for Active Server Pages.
JSP – Java Server Pages is an open-source server side web application. It can
make dynamic web pages using html, xml using Java. JSP code files are
compiled into servlet instead being intercepted.
PHP which stands for Hypertext Pre-processor
is a open source scripting language often used
in conjunction with HTML web pages. It’s very common to
find this type of scripts in websites. It can be often found in
databases where user is accessing the databases such as
MYSQL or PSQL.
Ruby on Rails is another server sided scripting language which uses ruby framework
and MVC principles of models, controllers and views. What is great about this
language is that it’s open source and was released in 2005 making it not such old
language.
C++ also pronounced (c plus plus) is a programming language which allows to
code and make applications for windows environment including both server
sided and client sided application, it uses different syntaxes compared to C#
and Java and it’s run directly in the operating system rather than using
runtime environment. This means that the code will run faster.
Django uses python framework to create web applications.
Its main task is to make creation of databases easier using
MVC principles. PYTHON is one of the most widely used
language due to its capabilities. It was released in 1991.
It cannot be used without a framework such as Django.
Web server scripting makes websites much more dynamic. Without them internet wouldn’t
be what it is today. As simple actions such as posting on Facebook or adding cash on PayPal
wouldn’t be possible.
