The Apache HTTP Server, colloquially called Apache (/əˈpætʃiː/ ə-PA-chee), is the world’s most used web server software. Originally based on the NCSA HTTPd server, development of Apache began in early 1995 after work on the NCSA code stalled. Apache played a key role in the initial growth of the World Wide Web, quickly overtaking NCSA HTTPd as the dominant HTTP server, and has remained most popular since April 1996. In 2009, it became the first web server software to serve more than 100 million websites.

Security Tips
How to hide Apache Version and OS Identity from Errors
When you install Apache with source or any other package installers like yum/apt-get, it displays the version of your Apache web server installed on your server with the operating system name of your server in Errors. It also shows the information about Apache modules installed in your server. To prevent Apache to not to display these information to the world, we need to make some changes in Apache main configuration file:
$ sudo nano /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
Add these lines on end:
ServerSignature Off ServerTokens Prod
Apply changes:
$ sudo service apache2 reload
