CherryPy2
CherryPy has significantly changed our approach towards developing frontend which used to be very uphill task. We used ajax, explored CherryPy's filters, XMLRpc and streaming and what not .. it was fun all the way working with CherryPy.

When you need to quickly implement a solution for a customer using reliable technology, stick with the simplest possible technologies. In this case, the CherryPy/Cheetah framework has produced results extremely quickly, has an easy learning curve and good community support.

This is a very nice project. I'm watching and drooling over the next version ;)
What I like about CP is that I can deploy a small aplication with a html frontend very easy.

"http://orango.amix.dk is built using CherryPy, ZODB and Cheetah Template. CherryPy was VERY fun to work with and the code is amazing ;)"
"I've experimented a lot with all the 658 other Python Web frameworks, and I really like CherryPy the best. I like its combination of "give me expressive power" + "stay outta my way" (much like Python itself)..."
Uche Ogbuji in Jan 2005.
"CherryPy: two enthusiastic thumbs up. In no time at all, I finished the library program. It took me significantly less time than it did with either of Quixote or Webware, and I'm very happy with the code that was produced."

"http://sales.picturehouses.org.uk is running svn version of CP2 behind Apache2 with RAM sessions and CherryTemplate?. This site allows you to buy tickets for the PictureHouse cinemas in the UK"
Remi Delon
"http://www.pennspurchase.com is running svn version of CP2, with SQLObject on PostgreSQL, and compiled Cheetah templates. CP2 works behind apache, and I use mod_rewrite+mod_proxy+proxy_html modules for it."
Pawel "Kender" Maczewski
"http://bank.muratordom.pl & http://bank.muratorplus.pl is running svn version of CP2, MySQL 4.1, compiled Cheetah templates. CP2 uses pool of forks, works behind apache2 (with mod_proxy)."
Jaroslaw Zabiello
http://www.zoodotcom.com, a webcomic, is running on an early version of CP2 (because I loved the new, non-compiling idea so much), SQLObject, CheetahTemplate?, PIL, and PyTextile?.
CherryPy1 (older version)
http://www.aufeinander.de, German-language dating site, developed and maintained by HendrikMans?. Uses CherryPy1 (working on a rewrite using CherryPy2), SQLObject and CheetahTemplate.

Just wanted to give another huge thank you for a wonderful tool. I built a auction catalog service for a client using CherryPy 0.9 and it handled like a charm. The site was basically a large searchable catalog and coincides with a satellite TV auction (meaning that everyone is hitting the server all at once as a new lot comes up). During the sale the site was easily 5 or 10 requests per second and it barely made a blip on the server it was running on. My setup was two separate instances of CP running in ThreadPool mode behind balance behind Apache. I wanted a couple separate servers in case one died but neither of them did. Everything worked flawlessly and the client was very happy.
A year before I had built a version using webware and it brought the server down under the load. I decided to move to CP because it was easier and simpler to follow what was happening. I'm really happy with it.

CherryPy is such an intuitive way to produce dynamic web pages. Remi has provided a first rate package that does everything I need. The excellent documentation makes it easy to learn CherryPy. The templating languages, standard libraries and examples are great building blocks that allow a relative Python newbie like me to create Aria Giovanni a very functional Intranet site.

I am a ex-zope user and I love CherryPy. ... CherryPy not only lets me develop in python, but bypasses zope's problem with regular files altogether. I told a friend of mine that he ought to drop 6 months of zope work and go with CherryPy. ;-)

We've chosen to deploy with CherryPy, a fantastic open-source tool. ... It makes putting together a dynamic, object oriented site a quick and painless proposition. It's extremely flexible and offers a fresh way to approach site design without all the overhead of a big CMS. ... Every time I thought I'd have to write a utility class from scratch, I've discovered that the functionality was already built in.

What's so exciting about CherryPy is that is lowers the floor for web programming while raising the power. ... It also unifies a collection of often difficult tools into a coherent power. ... Perhaps most exciting, !CherryPy's approach means that the kind of quick hacks that programmers do for fun or curiosity can now include complete web-served applications. That's just the kind of ease-of-creation that will foster the exploration of distributed, edge computing.

Finally something in this field that seems clean, simple and effective! I've looked at a number of systems like ZOPE, Quixhote, Webware etc, and this is the first that that made me feel that it's just what I wanted.
