<div class="moz-cite-prefix">At work I've been working on django
site that uses Riak as a back end for counters and time series
data. Even though its recommended to run in a cluster of at least
5 for "production" (And I would say at least 3 nodes for serious
things). I've been able to get away with a single node and its
been rock solid. Just make sure its a "strong" server with plenty
of disk space and you'll be good.<br>
<br>
Basho, the company that makes and open sources Riak, is in charge
of the python driver and the documentation is decent.<br>
<br>
Hopefully this helps.<br>

Thanks lots. I'll take a look at gunicorn. <br>
The database could be a set of flat files that store <br>
strings in colon-delimited fields. That option is poor <br>
because <br>
<br>
* I'll have to code data conversion and other functions <br>
that are common to database management software <br>
<br>
* Data should be encrypted so's to require the user to <br>
use my functions to generate files for USB stick <br>
transfer (no LAN connex as a point of security). <br>
-- a flatfile manager for ASCII data would work fine <br>
-- an rdbms would work, tho' it will be best that <br>
installation, configuration, connection is easy <br>

<div>My first thought would be gunicorn webserver with a
sqllite backend.<br>
</div>
You can use the sqllite module to work with the DB in
python.<br>
<br>
</div>
For the database management system, what are you looking to
manage. Sounds like a simple DB setup that would not require a
lot of management.<br>

[rudimentary questions]<br>
<br>
I have a client for whom I'm cooking up
the following:<br>
* on a dedicated computer with no LAN
connection<br>
* some (hopefully) lean web server with a
set of web<br>
pages that get data from the user and to a
local<br>
database and another set of web pages used
to get<br>
data and format reports, both using
javascript to<br>
get and present data<br>
* some python module(s) that interface
between the<br>
(lean) web server and the database<br>
* some (hopefully simple but bulletproof)
database<br>
management system, (again, hopefully) not
mysql<br>
and postgresql is okay though I hope for
something<br>
simpler. Data is primarily strings and
integers. The<br>
need could be satisfied with a set of flat
files (plain<br>
text ASCII) colon-delimited or some such,
but I hope<br>
not to reinvent too many wheels.<br>
<br>
Go opinions on a good, lean web server
and a<br>
compatible python module and rdbms system?<br>
Or an alternative approach (it'd be fine
with me if I<br>
can do everything by typing in some Python
files, tho'<br>
Django is a learning curve that I hope to
avoid for<br>
this project).<br>
<br>
Hopefully, with thanks,<br>
jim<br>
