Python

Supervisor is a simple yet powerful client/server system to monitor and control processes on UNIX systems.

I have a number of Tornado servers that are already managed by supervisor. I have found it stable and flexible enough for most tasks.

Installing supervisor

The installation is pretty straight forward.

sudo easy_install supervisor

This will install supervisor and all the required dependencies.

Tornado is a web server built by Friend Feed. The framework is distinct from most mainstream web server frameworks (and certainly most Python frameworks) because it is non-blocking and reasonably fast. Because it is non-blocking and uses epoll, it can handle thousands of simultaneous standing connections, which means it is ideal for real-time web services. Tornado is also one of the few web servers built to address the C10K problem . If you have used other python frameworks like web.py or Google's webapp then you are going to feel right at home.

Installation

You will need to install the following before you install Tornado

sudo apt-get install python-dev python-pycurl python-simplejson

Once the installation is complete you can install Tornado by pasting the following into the terminal.

wget http://www.tornadoweb.org/static/tornado-0.2.tar.gz
tar xvzf tornado-0.2.tar.gz
cd tornado-0.2
python setup.py build
sudo python setup.py install
