Unix Services
Unix Web Services
ITD Unix Services maintains multiple web servers, web sites and
applications on the Linux platform. These servers leverage the
flexibility of the Apache 2.2 web server, various scripting
languages (such as PHP and CGI/Perl), and the security of the Linux
Operating System environment to provide a stable and secure web
hosting platform to the Laboratory community.
The Apache web server allows ITD to host many websites on a
single platform, reducing hardware needs and administrative load. The servers maintained by ITD Unix Services have three different
sets of applications:
User Websites and Virtual Hosts
The web servers for this grouping support basic web pages as well
as dynamic content supported by Perl and PHP scripting with
connections to back-end MySQL and Oracle databases
Internal ITD-Managed Applications
Software packages designed by ITD and managed for the Laboratory
are also supported by ITD Unix Services. These include
- CTS (Legacy ticketing system)
- CForm (Legacy change form)
- Subversion (open source version control system)
Eternally available collaboration tools
ITD Unix Services maintains software packages for collaboration
with other groups within and outside the Laboratory. These
include:
- Indico (Conference management software)
- MediaWiki (Collaborative web pages)
