README
About
Kore (https://kore.io) is a web application platform for writing scalable, concurrent web based processes in C or Python.
It is built with a "secure by default" approach. It is fully privilege separated while using strong security features at the operating system level such as seccomp, pledge, unveil and more.
Today Kore is used in a variety of applications ranging from high assurance cryptographic devices, machine-learning stacks and even in the aerospace industry.
From embedded platforms all the way to high performance servers. Kore scales.
Key Features
- Supports SNI
- Supports HTTP/1.1
- Websocket support
- Privseps by default
- TLS enabled by default
- Optional background tasks
- Built-in parameter validation
- Optional asynchronous PostgreSQL support
- Optional support for page handlers in Python
- Reload private keys and certificates on-the-fly
- Automatic X509 certificates via ACME (with privsep)
- Private keys isolated in separate process (RSA and ECDSA)
- Default sane TLS ciphersuites (PFS in all major browsers)
- Modules can be reloaded on-the-fly, even while serving content
- Worker processes sandboxed on OpenBSD (pledge) and Linux (seccomp)
- Event driven (epoll/kqueue) architecture with per CPU worker processes
- Build your web application as a precompiled dynamic library or single binary
And lots more.
