The
Barracuda Embedded Web-Server is a tool specifically
designed for remote device control. A regular web-server is
designed to fetch HTML pages, images etc, when a browser requests
such information. High-end web-servers such as Apache have the
ability to add special plugins that allow for some form of device
control. In contrast, Barracuda is designed solely for device
control, but plugins make it possible for this web-server to also
function as a regular web-server. These plugins are in fact
device control units that extend the functionality of the
web-server. So as Apache has plugins for doing device control,
Barracuda has plugins for working as a regular
web-server.
These whitepapers, which have not been updated for some time, focus on basic C Server Pages (CSP) design. Although these white papers do not include many of our new features, they are still applicable. Find out how you can start developing Lua Server Pages (LSP) applications today with our BarracudaDrive server. See the Embedded Web Server SDK information page for how to get started.
