(C++) Global Wt deployment

Global Wt deployment is a type of Wt deployment and denotes running a Wt application from a server, so possibly everybody with internet access can view it. Global Wt deployment depends on where your server is:

• Global Wt deployment on a home server: there is a computer in your home, office, or other location, where you have physical access to and full access rights
• Hosted Wt deployment on a hosted server: an internet host is paid to maintain a computer at a location you often don't know, only access by an internet connection. The access rights you have varies from FTP-only to root access.

   Hey Richel, Yes, I believe this is information is somewhat lacking. I have not yet encountered a shared hosting environment that is suitable for hosting of Wt applications. Wt requires either that you are allowed to install a FastCGI application or that you are allowed to run daemons to which HTTP requests are routed through a reverse proxy. If you can login to your server using SSH, then that is a sign that you may have sufficient rights on the server to host a Wt application. If all you can do is upload files over FTP, then you are most likely not in a situation that you can run a Wt application. Type cheapest type of server on which you can host Wt application is usually a Virtual Private Server. A quick google reveals offerings starting at around $50 per year. Regards, koen
