However, there are times where C++ web programming with
CppCMS becomes a very useful and viable alternative, and some where it is just a waste of time.
## When CppCMS should or can be used?
1. High load web sites and applications with hundreds and thousands of hits per second, where high performance, efficiency and scalability is required.
2. Applications that require scalable Comet/Server Push<sup>[1](#note1)</sup> technologies --- CppCMS can efficiently handle hundreds and thousands of simultaneous HTTP connections with minimal resources usage.
3. Embedding a web interface<sup>[2](#note2)</sup> into existing C++ applications/services with a small cost of an additional library.
4. Embedded underpowered devices -- CppCMS allows the creation of rich applications with reasonably fast perfomance on relatively low cost hardware.
## When Not To Use?
If you create small web applications that do not require high loads and require very short time-to-market periods -- probably tools like Django or RoR would be more
appropriate for such tasks.
