Using FastCGI

FastCGI provides improved performance with the application isolation of CGI. You can use Net.Data with FastCGI on all Web servers that support FastCGI. See Configuring Net.Data for FastCGI to learn how to configure for FastCGI.

You can tune FastCGI to run the appropriate amount of processes to handle the number of incoming requests with the process configuration parameter. For example, if you need to handle 100 requests per second, and each request takes a half of a second to process, then you could set the NumProcesses directive to 50 in the FastCGI configuration file.

FastCGI is supported in all LEs; however, with Oracle and ODBC, Live Connection is required.

To tune the number of simultaneous processes:

  1. Open the configuration file where the configuration parameter for processes is defined.
  2. Change configuration parameter value that specifies the number of processes:

    Where num is the number of processes.
