  What is it?
  -----------

  The Apache HTTP Server is a powerful and flexible HTTP/1.1 compliant

  Server, it has grown to be the most popular web server on the

  developers aim to collaboratively develop and maintain a robust,
  commercial-grade, standards-based server with freely available
  source code.
