Hiawatha vs uWSGI

Hiawatha

Hiawatha is an open source webserver with security, easy to use and lightweight as the three key features. Hiawatha supports among others (Fast)CGI, IPv6, URL rewriting and reverse proxy. It has security features no other webserver has, like blocking SQL injections, XSS and CSRF attacks and exploit attempts. The built-in monitoring tool makes it perfect for large scale deployments.

PSA: Do not upgrade to Nextcloud 21 yet

Please also note, that currently uwsgi does not yet have php >= 8.0.0 support (a fix has been proposed upstream, but it is not backported for our release yet). This means nextcloud can only be used with the php7 equivalents in that scenario (php7, php7-gd, etc.). If time permits I will look into that later today though.
