When we come into contact with cloud servers, we often hear the concept of web servers. To understand WEB servers, you first need to understand what WEB is.

WEB is represented in three forms, namely, hypertext (hypertext), hypermedia (hypermedia) and hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP). You can simply understand that the HTML pages you see are the data elements of WEB, and the applications that deal with these data elements are called WEB servers, such as IIS, apache, nginx and so on.

A web server is a program that resides on a certain type of computer on the Internet and can provide documents to Web clients such as browsers. You can place website files for the world to browse, and you can place data files for the world to download.

The WEB server deals with the client, and the main information it deals with is: session, request, response, HTML, JS, CS and so on.

The Web server is only responsible for handling the HTTP protocol and can only send the content of static pages. The dynamic content such as JSP,ASP,PHP needs to be dealt with by other programs through CGI, FastCGI, ISAPI and other interfaces. This other program is the application server.

For example, Apache is a WEB server (HTTP server), and its information source can be either a JAVA application configured in tomcat or an ASPX application.

WEB servers are generally general-purpose, while application servers are generally dedicated, such as java applications, C # applications, ruby applications and so on. The application server provides access to business logic for use by client applications.

The common web servers we use in CVM are: Apache, IIS, Nginx, Tomcat and so on.

This is what the web server in the CVM shared by Xiaobian means. If you happen to have similar doubts, please refer to the above analysis to understand. If you want to know more about it, you are welcome to follow the industry information channel.
