Introduction to Apache
Way back when, in the wilds of 1995, there were a great many people who were disgruntled with the state of Web servers. The commercial ones, like Microsoft's IIS (Internet Information Server) and Netscape's family of servers, hadn't been born yet, and the ones put out by college students - well, they sucked. But lo! What did the early code jockeys do? They made their own damn Web server. They called it Apache (as in a patchy server, because it had a lot of patches). A patch is just what it sounds like - something to plug holes in your code with. This small group of hackers started a project that would eventually create the most popular Web server software in the world.

Optimize and Tweak High-Traffic Servers
If you are reaching the limits of your server running Apache serving a lot of dynamic content, you can either spend thousands on new equipment or reduce bloat to increase your server capacity by anywhere from 2 to 10 times. This article concentrates on important and poorly-documented ways of increasing capacity without additional hardware.

Apache Log Files Explained
One of the many pieces of the Website puzzle is Web logs. Traffic analysis is central to most Websites, and the key to getting the most out of your traffic analysis revolves around how you configure your Web logs. Apache is one of the most -- if not the most -- powerful open source solutions for Website operations. You will find that Apache's Web logging features are flexible for the single Website or for managing numerous domains requiring Web log analysis.
