--- Comment #3 from Petr Pisar <ppisar(a)redhat.com> ---
If you don't need long-running server jobs or preserving a state between HTTP
requests, I would go with classical CGI scripts.
If you want to have a server spanning across multiple HTTP requests, mod_fcgid
is probably the right way to go. Plenty of other languages like PHP or Python
actually prefer FastCGI interface. mod_fcgi itself also suffers from some
issues, e.g. I know about bug #1651746, that's pretty annoying when using PSGI
applications. But mod_fcgid is still supported by Apache, last upstream commit
<
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/mod_fcgid/trunk> was at the beginning of
this year and Red Hat actively fixes bugs there. The code base is smaller and
does not embed any interpreter in contrast to mod_perl thus it's easier for
maintenance and more secure. Although mod_fcgid is far from vibrant development
(partially because FastCGI interface is provided by various other HTTP servers
like Nginx and thus FastCGI users are more spread), it's definily maintained
and maintainable.
