Apache getting scalped by Microsoft IIS

 

 

The open source Apache Web Server is starting to lose its dominance to Microsoft.

Internet research and security services firm Netcraft is now reporting that across the nearly 717 million websites it has surveyed this month, Apache serves 46.96 percent of them.

I don't think it is IIS perse that is getting into Apache, but rather the fact that 2008 and 2013 Windows Servers are pretty dosh garn good and can be had for a very good price.

Hey... like your new sigline quote.

how come I don't see it?

If you want to see it, you need to change the color. Right now it's a pale gray.

I didn't make it pale gray as far as I know and no , there is no signature - i tried highlighting everything and the highlights go from my text straight to 'Report' button.

IIS still only has 22.75 percent, less than half the Apache share. There are other servers out there as well; the article mentions nginx' share also increased by nearly 1 percent in a month.

@ crp... You probably copy/pasted it from somewhere. Copy/paste it into your plain text editor on your system first, then copy/paste to your profile. That will remove any formatting, like colorization, etc.

 

@ Roger... Servers are only good as the idiots installing and maintaining them.

Ah... good color choice.

Do you have a sig?

Hello,

 

The article states the change was largely due to GoDaddy switching from IIS to Apache, that's probably a one-time event (although it may cause some smaller hosting providers to look at doing the same) so it will be interesting to see how the curve looks in a half a year or so.

crp, sounds like you made a change in your user cp to ignore some sigs?

[Guest LilBambi]

Apache isn't the only open source web server out there.

 

Web Server Types but certainly Apache has been the biggest for a long time. I wouldn't use a Windows system for a web facing server personally, but that's just me.

i saw that page but didn't notice anything. went back when you sent the link and still didn't notice anything. looked pixel by pixel and finally found that checkbox entry. sheesh, poor UI i think to have that there away from everything else that has entry interface elements. Thanks, mystery solved.

[Guest LilBambi]

You are very welcome! Glad its resolved. Thanks for letting us know.

Yup.

Being the "B" in the "B & E" probably makes you a bit biased.

I'm never merely biased.

I am always 100% in it.
