Before nginx was a thing, I worked with a guy who forked apache httpd and wrote this blog in C, like, literally embedded html and css inside the server, so when he made a tpyo or was adding another post he had to recompile the source code. The performance was out of this world.
He also uses his own http server that in turn queries the ldap server solely for the articles. The rest is compiled into the http server binary.
You're not at scale unless you're deploying OpenStack to run a WordPress site.
No I swear, I was gonna do more than that.
Maybe like, a static site as well. And a backup server. Y'know, things you need openstack for.
