Web Server Marketshare |
July 3, 2005
Web server marketshare:
http://news.netcraft.com/archives/web_server_survey.html
Look at the second graph
Apache 69.37%
Microsoft 20.54%
You can see in early 2002, Microsoft had a growth spurt. I suspect this was due to many developers looking into .NET and setting up new servers to check it out. Later as interest began to fade, Microsoft IIS usage continued to decline.
Web server marketshare:
http://www.securityspace.com/.../index.html
Apache 71.41%
Microsoft 22.83%
Apache's web server module usage:
http://www.securityspace.com/.../apachemods.html
PHP is the winner with 49.06%
mod_mono the .NET module didn't even make the list.
From this you can assume .NET stuff is only being ran on Microsoft IIS servers. But Microsoft IIS servers run PHP too.
So I have to wonder how people are arriving at the assumption that .NET is the future. The stats I read say the exact opposite. *shrug*

M$ is on it's way out. Open source software is the future. Believe it or not, I couldn't care less.

Book Recommendation: 
Professional Assembly Language covers assembly language for the Pentium microprocessor environment. This code-intensive guide shows programmers how to create stand-alone assembly language programs as well as how to incorporate assembly language libraries and routines into existing high-level applications. It demonstrates how to manipulate data, incorporate advanced functions and libraries, and maximize application performance. The examples use C as a high-level language, Linux as the development environment, and GNU tools for assembling, compiling, linking, and debugging. |

Not the whole picture...

There is no question Apache is dominant but these numbers don't paint a definite picture as to the real state of the web/application server market. Every domain name that doesn't have a site parked on (temporary page) it is most likely running on Apache because the hosters out there have found it to be more cost effective. That's millions of sites, including those that are domains for known spammers. In addition, with the boom in blogging, the number of blogs running on Apache are most likely in the vast majority over IIS. Myself, the majority (about 60%) of the web work I do is on LAMP while the majority of real enterprise application work I do is on IIS. Point is, there are a lot of considerations to take with these numbers. Not that I expect more from somone well planted in the LAMP and ROR camp but it is easy to take numbers and spin them with your flavor of bias, which is evident in your case.
