TinyWebServer is a lightweight C++ web server framework for Linux, intended for learning and small to medium load usage. It leverages nonblocking sockets, epoll, and thread pools to handle high concurrency. It supports HTTP request parsing (GET and POST), serves static content (images, video files), integrates basic database-backed user registration/login, and implements synchronous/asynchronous logging systems. The project is often used by learners to practice network programming in C++ with high concurrency models.
Features
- Uses thread pool + nonblocking sockets + epoll (supporting both ET and LT modes)
- HTTP request parsing via a state machine capable of processing GET and POST
- Static file serving (images, video, etc.)
- Database integration for user registration and login
- Logging subsystem (sync / async) to track server runtime state
- Tested under high concurrency (Webbench) to support tens of thousands of simultaneous connections

Gen AI apps are built with MongoDB Atlas
MongoDB Atlas provides built-in vector search and a flexible document model so developers can build, scale, and run gen AI apps without stitching together multiple databases. From LLM integration to semantic search, Atlas simplifies your AI architecture—and it’s free to get started.
