I know it's a dumb question but a colleague of mine schooled me saying that a CMS is a web server, and now I'm confused.
What do you guys think?
No A CMS is not a web server.
A CMS system has to be inside a web server if it were meant to perform.

I currently have developed a Laravel application on my localhost. We have a server in the office which is only accessible to Office computers. I want to deploy my Laravel application to that server so they can access it. what steps should I take after developing the application to make it live on server. A detailed guide will be highly appreciated as I have no experience working with the servers.
I found this time ago, and help me a lot to setup a server and introduce me to server stuff, the CI/DI process, the repo pipelines, etc. Enjoy it!

The idea of my project is to communicate Alfresco Share with my app server, but I found that Share only can communicate with Alfresco Repository, and to do the manipulation I said before I must develop all APIs that let the Share communicate with my app server. Since Share communicates only with Alfresco Repository, I'm searching a way to communicate my server app with this Repository, so my documents will be in Alfresco server and Share can then expose them. If I'm missing something to understand please correct me.
Can anyone please help me. Thanks in advance.
As Jeff Potts mentioned in his last book:
Alfresco provides four main ways to develop your own UI:
Share customizations
Angular applications using ADF Application Development Framework
Any JavaScript framework (using the Alfresco JavaScript API)
Any application capable of using the CMIS protocol
I apologize for the amateur nature of my question, but I am all rather new to this. So I have created a project within the cloud9 IDE, which is a website that connects to a mySQL database located on the same server. However, I wish to showcase the code that I have used to create the site. I have done a little research into doing this and so far I have found that GitHub Pages can allow you to host webcontent. Thus in theory I can just copy across the files from cloud9 to a GitHub repository. However, my site relies on being able to connect to and query a mySQL database. My question is, can and how would I connect my GitHub repo to such a database?
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated! In addition, please let me know if I am barking up the wrong tree with this...
GitHub Pages are only for static HTML websites. It does not run any server side technology.
You must find web hosting based on the technology you used to create the website.
If you've been working on a server-side technology, then you could be running on localhost.
If thats the case, try tunnelling your localhost, which allows you to share your localhost with others on other networks.
localtunnel, ngrok and forward provide such technologies.
I want to develop my iPhone app but I am not sure what could be the options I have for hosting database and webservice to communicate with my iPhone App. Could someone please suggest me what could be the best way to go for this?
I know how to build everything but never come across this situation. I have been working in environment where we ask Admin to give us Server where we host everything but if I want to do it myself and don't have server infrastructure what could be the options do I have? Do I need to purchase from web hosting provider?
Thanks.
From my experience, I've developed back-end part for iPad client. It was REST, ASP.NET Web API (WCF Web API) and as database on back-end MS SQL Server and MySQL.
Anyway for mobile clients you can freely use REST. It can be ASP.NET Web API from .NET or other libraries that help to make REST services for example from Java.
REST is good consumed by mobile client applications. And then from client application perspective, it's no matter what database back-end will have.
Speaking about hosting it also depends from requirements to back-end. When you have no server infrastructure, you can use cloud PaaS like Amazon AWS (EC2) for example. Or host server it by yourslef.
Our team is planning on making a thick client into a web based UI. We are researching the various options and GWT is something that we are researching. I have a question if GWT can be deployed by itself (meaning, does it have a built-in web server that can be deployed as a solution?) Appreciate thoughts about it.
Thanks in advance.
If your application is completely client-side and does not need to communicate with a server (for data purposes), then you can use any web server. GWT compiles to static JavaScript files, so you can use apache or any other web server to serve up the static files.
If there is a server-side component to your application then you'll need a servlet container.
No built-in web server really except for the development platform which include one... but it's not meant for production.
