Comparison mod fastcgi vs OpenSSL

mod_fastcgi is a well-known and widely used 3rd party module. It is known for its high-quality support and performance offered mainly for the FastCGI protocol. It is available for static, dynamic and external FastCGI applications and provides scope for configuration through the FastCGI server, FastCGI config and FastCGI ExternalServer directives. Mod_fastcgi is recognized for being a scalable and open extension. FastCGI applications are widely used for their fast performance and high level of persistence. They are designed to be easily portable as well. Mod_fastcgi is known for providing several directives such as FastCgiWrapper, FastCgiAuthorizer, FastCgiAuthorizerAuthoritative, FastCgiAcessChecker, FastCgiAccessChecker Authoritative and FastCgilpcDir, among others.

OpenSSL is a library available for multiple systems. It has been available since 1998. It is widely used in the area of cryptography. It is an open-source, commercial-grade application that enables its users to install the SSL certificate and complete the SSL tasks with ease. It helps with Certificate Signing Requests (CSR) and also provides the facility to convert the certificate into different SSL formats and perform verifications. OpenSSL comes with a toolkit with a rich set of features for the purposes of Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). It is actively run and maintained by the OpenSSL Management Committee.
