Introduction to servlet
-Servlet Technology is used to create web applications.
-Servlet technology uses Java language to create web applications.
What is CGI
-CGI is actually an external application which is written by using any of the programming languages like C or C++

Disadvantages of CGI
There are many problems in CGI technology:
1.If the number of clients increases, it takes more time for sending the response.
2.For each request, it starts a process, and the web server is limited to start processes.
3.It uses platform dependent language e.g. C,C++
Advantages of Servlet

1.Better performance: because it creates a thread for each request, not process.
2.Portability: because it uses Java language.
3.Robust: JVM manages Servlets, so we don't need to worry about the memory leak, garbage collection, etc.
4.Secure: because it uses java language.
