It is a standard for applications to interface with HTTP servers. It is similar to FastCGI but is designed to be easier to implement”.
I was getting lots of random Error 500 on a new server installation and I think it has something to do with the FastCGI / Apache2 configuration option. I’ll be testing the stability of the Apache2 / SCGI setup the next coming days. More information on Rails on SCGI. Results of the stress testing will follow. For now at least I’ve ruled out Apache2 with FastCGI as serious combination for production Rails applications, that’s for sure.

Update: Lighttpd might be a better engine for SCGI.
