I have an IIS 6.0 web server that I currently use to serve some vanilla ASP pages, and I’m finding ASP somewhat limited. I use python quite a bit for automation tasks, and various other things, and would like to begin using it with IIS to serve web pages.
My question is this: What is the best way to do this? I define best as easiest, fastest, and most well documented. I would like to avoid CGI/FastCGI, as I am told that they are less preferable due to having to start the python interpreter every time a page is requested. (Correct me if I am wrong)
I’ve read about ISAPI and WSGI, and various flavors and combinations thereof, and am fairly confused about the whole thing. I would like to use the latest technology, but every tutorial I have found on this is very cryptic. A good tutorial on this would be greatly appreciated.
