Linux is among the frequently used Operating Systems for web servers.

This way, you will be able to enjoy a reliable service and spend the time developing and advertising your Internet sites, not bothering with basic safety issues. A lot of Linux-based machines use the Apache web server to handle the HTTP traffic, as this piece of software is very quick and is also uncomplicated to maintain and individualize depending on the needs of the website hosting provider. A Linux server with Apache is the perfect software environment for your Internet sites and it is not a coincidence that many popular script-driven applications nowadays require LAMP, which stands for Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP.
