Apache HTTP Server
|
|
|
|
What is it?
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
The Apache HTTP Server is a powerful and flexible HTTP/1.1 compliant
|
|
web server. Originally designed as a replacement for the NCSA HTTP
|
|
Server, it has grown to be the most popular web server on the
|
|
Internet. As a project of the Apache Software Foundation, the
|
|
developers aim to collaboratively develop and maintain a robust,
|
|
commercial-grade, standards-based server with freely available
|
|
source code.
