Governed by Rajesh Kumar a globally recognized mentor with over 20 years of experience in DevOps, Cloud, Kubernetes, SRE, and MLOps, our programs go beyond theory. This guide breaks down everything you need to know about Apache in 2025: its role, benefits, training structure, and how certification can open new career doors.
What is Apache HTTP Server?
Apache is an open-source web server developed by the Apache Software Foundation. Launched in 1995, it continues to dominate the market due to its:
- Modular architecture – Extend functionality with 100+ modules
- Cross-platform support – Runs on Linux, Windows, macOS
- Robust security – Built-in SSL/TLS, mod_security, and access controls
- High compatibility – Works with PHP, Python, Perl, MySQL, and modern frameworks
Unlike Nginx (event-driven) or IIS (Windows-only), Apache uses a process/thread-based model ideal for dynamic content and legacy systems. It’s the default choice for shared hosting, WordPress, and enterprise CMS platforms.
Fun Fact: The name “Apache” was chosen as a tribute to Native American resilience—and because it sounded like “a patchy server” (due to early patch-based development).
Why Learn Apache in 2025?
The demand for Apache-skilled professionals is stronger than ever:
| Metric | Insight |
|---|---|
| Market Share | ~31% of all active websites (W3Techs, 2025) |
