Mod_python is an Apache module that embeds the
Python interpreter within the server.
With mod_python you can write web-based applications in Python that will run
many times faster than traditional CGI and will have access to
advanced features such as ability to retain database connections and other data
between hits and access to Apache internals. A more detailed description of what
mod_python can do is available in this O'Reilly
article.
With any questions or comments about using mod_python, please subscribe

internals.
