The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

I'd like to add to this statement. It appears to me that most people use
the term "application server" when referring to a product that implements
the Java servlet specification (like the IBM i integrated application
server). But I would suggest that PHP, Python, Ruby, and Node.js, all
implement an application-sever design pattern for serving web pages. That's
to say they all implement language environments for deploying and running
applications. Most of those environments are paired with a separate HTTP
server, or paired with one that is built in.
Even the IBM i CGI interface uses additional Jobs, which are separate from
the main HTTP server job in order to run ILE application code. In a limited
sense, those jobs could be viewed as separate application servers, except
there is no need to run separate language environments within those jobs,
except perhaps the SQL language environment.
