## Software The World Relies On
The ASF was founded with a mission to provide software for the public good. For 25 years the foundation has delivered reliable software that fuels innovation and powers organizations of all sizes - from small businesses to the most advanced data-driven enterprises.
From the flagship Apache HTTP project to more recent projects spanning AI/ML, big data, cloud computing, financial tech, geospatial, IoT, search, and more ASF projects serve the public good with use cases such as fueling cancer research; aiding in clean energy research; and reducing food waste.

## Communities That Endure
Open source projects need healthy communities to thrive. The ASF provides projects with services and mentorship for building resilient and durable communities throughout their lifecycle. New projects start in the Apache Incubator and graduate once theyve met certain criteria (and if its not longer maintained, it goes in the Attic).

<h4>Apache Attic</h4>
<p>If a project is no longer being supported by an active community, its retired to the Apache Attic for preservation including code, mailing lists, and all other project communications in the event that those artifacts become useful again in the future. Recent projects that entered the Attic include: Apache OODT, Apache Giraph, Apache MXNet, Apache Any23, and Apache jUDDI.</p>
