Linux is a well-known Operating System, which is traditionally used for web servers, because it features a wide variety of advantages over other OSs. It is thought to be the most solid OS available and due to the way it works, infected files will simply not work. Since Linux is totally free to use, no license fees will be added to the price you will have to pay for your web hosting service. This, consequently, makes it possible for the provider to personalize the OS based on what they and their clients want, taking away unnecessary packages to enhance the OS and the server’s overall performance. Linux servers usually feature the Apache server software, which processes site access requests. Apache is also 100 % free and customizable, not to mention that it's really fast and light with regard to the resources it requires. LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) is the software environment which some of the most widely used script apps require – Moodle, Joomla™, WordPress,, etcetera. The LAMP configuration is the most frequently used one globally, since it is stable as well as simple to take care of.
