    Default What are the basic difference between Apache and IIS Server?

    Hi,
    Apache:
    The original Apache web server is based upon HTTP code largely credited for revolutionizing the entire World Wide Web. As an open-source software product, the earlier days saw it being used to mainly work with Unix and Unix-like platforms, even though it could be tweaked to work within the Windows environment.
    IIS:
    Since Windows NT 4.0 launched, Microsoft IIS has been available as an optional feature on Windows Server operating systems. At the time, IIS 3.0, was a basic application and didn’t really get its push as a true platform until IIS 4.0. The Microsoft server took off with the release of Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6.0, which was far more superior to previous editions. With the recent release of Windows Server 2008, IIS 7.0 was introduced, unleashing power and performance that would make it one of the most effective web servers on the market.

    PHP is a web programming language. There is only one PHP 'server', called 'PHP'. In order to use this you'll (normally) need a web server as well, like apache, and a database would be nice too (like mySQL).
