This survey was conducted in March of 2000. There are three web servers battling for dominance in the business world - the open source Apache and the Microsoft and Netscape commercial web servers.
Many companies choose a web server based on what most other companies use.
For this reason, BizNix conducted a survey of web servers in use by medium to large companies as well as government agencies and military. The survey results are broken down by lists such as the Fortune 500, Global 500, and our own BizNix 300. The results appear in the table below. Commentary on the results follows the table. The Apache web server is regarded as one of the best web servers there is and the most widely deployed.
