1. PhP

PHP is a general-purpose server side scripting language originally designed for  web development to produce dynamic web pages. It is one of the first developed server-side scripting languages to be embedded into an HTML source document rather than calling an external file to process data.

This is quite simple and if you know the basics of programming languages, writing programs/ scripts in php is not a problem.


 2. Apache server


Apache is generally recognized as the world's most popular Web server (http server). Originally designed for Unix environments, the Apache Web server has been ported to Windows and other network operating systems.

As I mentioned in the earlier blog, it is widely used server and occupies almost 65 % market share.
