Servertec today
announced the release of iServer, its scalable, platform-independent
Java-based Web server.
iServer can be used for both static Web pages and dynamic, data driven Web
pages using Java Servlets, iScript, Common Gateway Interface (CGI) and
Server Side Includes (SSI).
The iServer Web server is a robust, scalable platform that enables
individuals, work groups and corporations to establish a presense on the
Internet. The server provides a suitable environment for building and
deploying Web-based, cross-platform business applications.
Features of the iServer Web server include:
- Platform Independence – iServer is pure Java and will run on any
Java-capable platform.
- Open Standards – iServer supports open standards such as Java, Java
Servlet API, HTTP, CGI, SSI, HTML, TCP/IP, RMI, JDBC, ODBC and CORBA.
- High Performance Web Engine – iServer is developed around a high
performance Wb engine.
- Extensible Architecture – iServer can be easily expanded using
Servlets, CGI and iScript.
- Scalable Solution – Using server-side redirection and Servlets enables
developers to create robust, scalable solutions.
- Fault Tolerant – Java provides a robust environment for serving Web
pages and running server side internet applications.
- Object Oriented – Developers create object oriented reusable modules
(servlets) which encapsulate business logic.
- n-Tier Solution – iServer is an intergral part of a client/server
computing; the Web Browser provides the presentation, the Web Server
provides page delivery, the Application Server provides the business logic
and the Database Server provides storage and retrieval of information.
- Data Access – Use JDBC to create data-driven Web-based applications
that have access to a variety of data sources.
- Tiny Foot Print – iServer uses 65K for the base package and under 120K
for the rest.

can be easily generated from templates.

Interface.

Side Includes.
- Session States – Provides support for maintaining information specific
