FastCGI is old but it still seems like it must be the right answer in some cases.

It seems like the preferred deployment of Perl/Catalyst web applications is with FastCGI.

FastCGI was popular with Rails but seems to no longer be. (Why?)

The Java world doesn't seem to have anything to do with FastCGI. Is something like Tomcat way better than Apache+FastCGI?

Is choosing FastCGI still a good idea or just a lingering technology?
