A. Not at all. We're always looking for new ways to make HTTP requests on Heroku faster, more reliable, and more efficient. For example, we've been experimenting with backpressure routing for web dynos to signal to the router that they are overloaded.
You, our customers, have told us that it's not routing algorithms you ultimately care about, but rather overall web performance. You want to serve HTTP requests as quickly as possible, for fast page loads or API calls …

…printed JSON in a file, but now you want to use it as a body of a CURL POST request, for example. Well ppjson can uglify your JSON for you as well : ppjson -fu abc123.json
This will output a minified JSON string to standard output. And of course you can also update the original file with the uglified JSON as well: ppjson -fui abc123.json
It will do you basic JSON pretty printing with an easy to remember executable name, but it also has a few nice convenience features to …

What's at play here is a chicken and egg problem. Client developers can't build on hypermedia principles until they are working at the level of hypermedia abstractions. Arming them only with HTTP requests and the ability to choose their encoding and schema poison is too low level.
Protocols like HAL or Collection+JSON could light a path to solving this problem. …

Sinatra is a fantastic lightweight framework for building web services. We'll use it as the server framework for the HTTP endpoints in our Service Oriented Architecture.
Unlike Rails, Sinatra isn't all that opinionated on how you set up your application (it has a few sensible defaults ), but leaves a lot of open questions on codebase structure, how to test the application, and how to make sure the client is performing as expected.

Because Apache performs a lot of blocking I/O (namely HTTP handling), you should give it a lot of threads so that it has a lot of concurrency. The number of threads should be at least the number of concurrent clients that you're willing to serve with Apache. A small website can get away with 1 process and 100 threads. A large website may want to have 8 processes and 200 threads per process (resulting in 1600 threads in total).
If you cannot use the event MPM, consider putting Apache…
