The Apache HTTP Server Project is an effort to develop and maintain an open-source HTTP server for modern operating systems including UNIX and Windows NT. The goal of this project is to provide a secure, efficient and extensible server that provides HTTP services in sync with the current HTTP standards.

Apache httpd has been the most popular web server on the Internet since April 1996, and celebrated its 15th birthday as a project this February.

The Apache HTTP Server ("httpd") is a project of The Apache Software Foundation.

The Apache HTTP Server Project is proud to announce the release of version 2.2.19 of the Apache HTTP Server ("httpd"). This version is principally a security and bugfix release. This release also corrects a versioning incompatibility in 2.2.18; users are advised that 2.2.19 now restores compatibility with modules compiled against earlier versions of 2.2 (other than 2.2.18 which is considered abandoned).

This version of httpd is a major release of the stable branch, and represents the best available version of Apache HTTP Server. New features include Smart Filtering, Improved Caching, AJP Proxy, Proxy Load Balancing, Graceful Shutdown support, Large File Support, the Event MPM, and refactored Authentication/Authorization.

The Apache HTTP Server Project is proud to announce the first beta release of the Apache HTTP Server ("httpd") 2.4 : 2.3.12-beta. This version of httpd is principally an Beta release to test new technology and features that are incompatible or too large for the stable 2.2.x branch. This Beta release should not be presumed to be compatible with binaries built against any prior or future version although, as a beta, the API is in a semi-frozen state.

New features include Loadable MPMs, major improvements to OSCP support, mod_lua, FastCGI Proxy, New Expression Parser, and a Small Object Caching API.
