Developing web applications with AWS

What is AWS? AWS or Ada Web Server is a complete web application framework written completely in Ada and allows development of application with an embedded web server. The application is self-contained with an embedded server. That means, the application is also a web application that can be controlled and manipulated using any web browsers on any clients that connect to it. And more, you don’t need any web server like Apache anymore.

My current job involving developing a web application using Ada and AWS only and there will be Ajax using server push technology in AWS. I was developing some web applications using AdaCGI. One drawback about using AdaCGI is that if there is a minor format changes in the html code, the entire application needs to be re-compiled again.

I was not totally familiar with AWS before I joined the US-based company but I was familiar already working with mails using AWS with the SMTP and POP protocol. I am beginning to understand the mechanism of the http protocol in AWS and I hope to write about this with more details in near future. I am beginning to love this job already and I believe I will be busy in the mud hole mingling with Ada, AWS and Ajax.
