GideonArchitecture

Gideon Architecture

Gideon is based on the openacs4 and aolserver with some additional packages, namely ns_openssl, and most importantly Pywx which embeds a python interpreter into aolserver. FTP access is provided by pureftp (www.pureftpd.org) (or any other ftp server, actually), the exposed webservices use ZSI for soap (http://pywebsvcs.sf.net) xmlrpclib for xml-rpc (http://www.pythonware.com)

most of the community/relational work is done via the openacs apis, while python is used to handle the web-services and package management functionality.

Please see InfraStructure for a discussion of alternative architectures and OtherSystems
