Haciendo El Cherokee

Hello everyone, I’m Daniel and I’m glad to present this blog as an effort to share my transition from Apache to Cherokee.

This first post will talk about me, my first contact with Cherokee  and how I ended up having a great time at Cherokee Summit.

Who am I ?

I’m Daniel Cabrera, I’m spanish and System Administrator at Innoforma Elearning Technologies, a young company from Granada, Spain.

Cherokee ?

I first met Cherokee at an Open Solaris Day in Granada, March 2008.

David Galán, who also spoke at Cherokee Summit, just didn’t have the time to talk about this web server and the end of the day, but he seeded the idea of using an apache alternative for certain purposes.

I followed the development of Cherokee, and tested it in non-production environments.

I was looking for an Apache substitute for a while, and when I read the Cherokee Summit announcement, taking place in Madrid, I decided to go there and get the information from the main source (Alvaro, Taher, Stefan, Pigmeg, Iván (¡México Lindo!),José Illescas,…).

Meeting the mighty makers was what I needed to get involved into the community.

As I’m not a great programmer (not even a mediocre one), I will try to share my knowledge and troubleshooting experience with everyone interested.

Ok, now this is started at last

Don’t hesitate to contact me to help you in everything I can.
