What happens if you put HTTP server inside Postgres?
In the past weeks, I've taken the task of adding an embedded HTTP server to Omnigres. Since Omnigres is implemented in C , it was only natural for me to choose libh2o to implement the functionality of an HTTP server. It did help that H2O is known for its good performance characteristics.

35M Hot Dogs: Benchmarking Caddy vs. Nginx
h2o [1] was excellent when I tried it for TLS termination. And it got http/2 priorities right. It's a shame they don't make regular releases.

35M Hot Dogs: Benchmarking Caddy vs. Nginx
It's always been blisteringly fast when we've used it, and I like the power of the configuration (it has its quirks but so do most powerful systems). But the overhead of setting it up and maintaining it due to having to handle TLS termination separately puts me off using it when other software is 'good enough'. If Varnish Enterprise was cheaper I would have bought it, but at their enterprise prices no way.
I'm keeping a watching brief on https://github.com/darkweak/souin and its Caddy integration to see if that can step up and replace Varnish for short-lived dynamic caching of web applications. Though I've lost track of its current status.

Generate Static Sites from Markdown Files with Caddy
Centminmod (need lots of tweaks) or OpenLiteSpeed are consider more performant than default Nginx and Caddy, but I wish if someone can prove there is a better one out there or I just saw Souin HTTP cache (https://github.com/darkweak/souin) when I was reading Echo web framework for Go. Yet to experiment if there is a benefits unless it's insignificant.
