Apache is the most commonly used Web server on Linux systems. Web servers are used to serve Web pages requested by client computers. Clients typically request and view Web pages using Web browser applications such as <application>Firefox</application>, <application>Opera</application>, <application>Chromium</application>, or <application>Internet Explorer</application>.

Users enter a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) to point to a Web server by means of its Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) and a path to the required resource. For example, to view the home page of the <ulink url="http://www.ubuntu.com">Ubuntu Web site</ulink> a user will enter only the FQDN:

www.ubuntu.com

To view the <ulink url="http://www.ubuntu.com/community">community</ulink> sub-page, a user will enter the FQDN followed by a path:

www.ubuntu.com/community

The most common protocol used to transfer Web pages is the Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP). Protocols such as Hyper Text Transfer Protocol over Secure Sockets Layer (HTTPS), and File Transfer Protocol (FTP), a protocol for uploading and downloading files, are also supported.

Apache Web Servers are often used in combination with the <application>MySQL</application> database engine, the HyperText Preprocessor (<application>PHP</application>) scripting language, and other popular scripting languages such as <application>Python</application> and <application>Perl</application>. This configuration is termed LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL and Perl/Python/PHP) and forms a powerful and robust platform for the development and deployment of Web-based applications.
