The Apache HTTP Server, colloquially called Apache (/əˈpætʃiː/), is a free and open-source cross-platform web server software, released under the terms of the Apache License 2.0. The server runs on a variety of operating systems, including most major Linux distributions. It provides an interface for implementing software modules that handle requests for static and dynamic content from the server. This modular design enables administrators to customize the server to suit their needs by adding or removing modules as necessary. In addition to its core functionality, the Apache HTTP Server can also be extended with a variety of third-party modules to provide additional features and functionality. Modules are available for a wide range of purposes, including content management, security, performance, and more. With its flexibility and extensibility, the Apache HTTP Server is one of the most popular web servers in use today. According to Netcraft’s October 2020 Web Server Survey, the Apache HTTP Server is used by 43.6% of all websites and 67.8% of the top 10 million websites.
