The Apache HTTP Server is a web server for Unix systems, Microsoft Windows, Novell NetWare, Mac OS X and other operating systems. Apache is notable for playing a key role in the initial growth of the World Wide Web.
History
When first released, Apache was the only viable free/open source alternative to the Netscape Communications Corporation web server (currently known as Sun Java System Web Server). It has since evolved to rival other Unix-based web servers in terms of functionality and performance. Since April 1996, Apache has been the most popular HTTP server on the World Wide Web; as of March 2007 Apache served 58% of all websites.[1]
