Apache Now the Leader in SSL Servers?

Posted by Zonk on from the moving-on-up dept.

miller60 writes "Apache has overtaken Microsoft as the leading developer of secure web servers, according to Netcraft's monthly SSL survey. Apache now runs on 44.0% of secure web sites, compared to 43.8% for Microsoft. Apache's recent gains are attributed to the inclusion of mod_ssl in version 2, and strong growth of SSL-enabled sites in non-US markets where Apache has stronger market share."

    43.8% for Microsoft vs. 44.0%
    Netcraft confirms it...Windows is dying.
    Until next month when MS is at 44.0% again.

    You should probably check your facts first. IIS is a lot more secure than Apache.

    IIS 6 2 exploits all patched
    Apache 2.028 exploits 3 unpatched

    I bet i get modded down for posting these two links.

    Why should dynamic content be obvious? There is far more to that site than meets the eye.

    The current debt image is dynamically created daily to show the current debt load based on the each loans rates and the different ways both of the banks that have these loans calculate their interest.

    To solve this problem I came up with a very object oriented solution that from what I learned later is well beyond what PHP is capable of in order to make it expandable, easy to maintain and clear in terms of readability.
