mod_perl is an optional module for the Apache Web Server . It embeds a Perl Interpreter into the Apache server, so that dynamic content produced by Perl Scripts can be served in response to incoming requests, without the significant overhead of re-launching the Perl interpreter for each request. mod_perl can emulate a CGI environment, so that existing Perl CGI scripts can benefit from the performance boost without having to be re-written. Unlike CGI (and most other web application environments), mod_perl provides complete access to the Apache API , allowing Programmer s to easily write handlers for any phase in the Apache request cycle, manipulate Apache's internal tables and state mechanisms, share data between Apache Processes or Thread s, alter or extend the Apache Configuration File Parser , and add Perl code to the configuration file itself, among other things.
