Depends a lot about on the programming language used: if it's Perl, 
use the Apache mod_perl, if it's Python use the Apache modpython
(http://www.modpython.com). In general, CGI doesn't scale well: try going
for a more modern solution: Python's Zope, Perl's HTML::Mason, Java's
Servlets and JSP, or PHP. If you're doing it in C, C++ or Fortran, you
might consider writing an Apache module.
