In this article, we will deep-dive into the architecture that lets our Open Source mORMot 2 library compete with (and sometimes outperform) nginx, Kestrel, and raw C++ implementations.
The library offers several HTTP servers.
The mormot.net.server unit contains the historical mORMot 1 web servers - mainly THttpServer (thread-pool for HTTP/1.0 short requests + one thread per kept-alive HTTP/1.1 connection), and THttpApiServer (using the efficient http.sys kernel API on Windows).
But since mORMot 2, our mormot.net.async unit is our genuine cross-platform, modern async implementation.
