Common web servers

The most widely used free HTTP servers on UNIX and Linux platforms are W3C, NCSA, and Apache servers, while Windows NT/2000/2003 uses IIS web servers. When selecting a Web server, you should consider the following characteristics: performance, security, logs and statistics, virtual hosts, proxy servers, buffer services, and integrated applications, the following describes several common web servers. Microsoft IIS Microsoft's Web server product is Internet Information Server (IIS). IIS is a web server that allows information to be published on the public Intranet or the Internet. IIS is one of the most popular Web server products. Many famous websites are built on the IIS platform. IIS provides a graphical management tool called Internet Service Manager, which can be used to monitor, configure, and control Internet services. IIS is a Web service component, including web server, FTP server, NNTP server, and SMTP server, which are used for Webpage Browsing, file transmission, News Service, and email sending, it makes it easy to publish information on networks (including the Internet and LAN. It provides ISAPI (intranet Server API) as a programming interface to expand web server functions. It also provides an Internet Database Connector to query and update databases.

This entire set of products has been extended to meet the needs of Web application servers, ranging from simple to advanced to enterprise level. WebSphere is designed for web-centric developers who have grown up in basic HTTP servers and CGI programming technologies. IBM will provide the WebSphere product series in a scalable runtime environment that provides comprehensive resources, reusable components, powerful and easy-to-use tools, and supports HTTP and IIOP communications, to help these users migrate from simple web applications to the e-commerce world.

All the key tasks for application development and deployment, whether integrating various systems and databases, submitting services, and cross-Internet collaboration, are starting points of BEA WebLogic Server. Because of its comprehensive functions, compliance with open standards, multi-layer architecture, and support for component-based development, Internet-based enterprises choose it to develop and deploy the best applications. BEA WebLogic Server remains at the leading position in making the application server the foundation of the enterprise application architecture. BEA WebLogic Server provides a solid foundation for building integrated enterprise-level applications. It shares information and submits services between enterprises connected to the Internet at the capacity and speed of the Internet to automate collaboration.

When the ncsa www server project is stopped, those who use the ncsa www server begin to exchange patches for this server, which is also the origin of the Apache name (pache patch ). Many famous websites in the world are the products of Apache, its success mainly lies in its open source code, an open development team, and support for cross-platform applications (which can run on almost all UNIX, windows, and Linux platforms) and its portability.

Tomcat server is executed according to Servlet and JSP specifications. Therefore, we can say that Tomcat server implements APACHE-Jakarta specifications and is better than most commercial application software servers. Tomcat is a standard implementation of Java Servlet 2.2 and JavaServer Pages 1.1 technologies, and is a free software developed under the Apache license. Tomcat is a fully rewritten servlet API 2.2 and JSP 1.1 compatible Servlet/JSP Container. Tomcat uses some jserv Code, especially the apache service adapter. With the advent of the Catalina servlet engine, the performance of tomcat version 4 has been improved, making it a Servlet/JSP Container worth considering. Therefore, many web servers currently adopt tomcat. Official Website: http://tomcat.apache.org: http://www.eryin.com/Server/Soft/200808/02250.html
