Apache HTTP Server for Windows

Apache Website Hosts

Apache HTTP Server, also known as Apache / Patching-gee, a free and open-source web server program, was created under the Apache License 2.0. Apache is maintained and developed by an open-source community of active developers, under the Apache Software Foundation's Apache Project. Apache is one the most widely used web servers, serving hundreds of thousands websites. Apache is written primarily in C++, with an emphasis on high reliability and performance. It is designed to be highly functional, portable, and easy to configure with minimal configuration requirements. Apache features include an embedded implementation the Open Database Language (ODL), which supports object's database management, language interactivity, and a user-friendly high-level programming language. It also provides security, configuration, and a rich collection functions and utilities.

Apache is widely used as a content management platform or CMS. It can be used to serve a variety of websites. Apache users can port some of Apache's code onto other platforms. Many Apache servers are commercially used. Commercial Apache sites are often built on the well-known Sun Java Collections Software (or Sun Java Platform), which is licensed under the GNU General Public License, version 3. Apache can be used as a standalone application or as part of larger frameworks such as Joomla. Apache can be used both as a web server and as a server.

Apache was originally developed as a web server and database management system to deliver interactive online sites. Apache is now used as both a content management system, and as a hosting platform. Apache can be installed using the Apache service pack 1.3. The Apache module can also be installed with Apache module. Apache is one of three major Content Management Systems approved by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
