Linux is a popular Operating System, that's traditionally used for web servers, due to the fact it has a wide variety of advantages over other Operating Systems. It's looked upon as the most solid OS these days and owing to the way it runs, corrupted files will simply not work. Because Linux is absolutely free to use, no license fees shall be included to the price which you'll have to pay for your hosting service. That, subsequently, allows for the provider to customize the OS based on what they and their clients require, taking away unnecessary packages to improve the OS and the server’s functionality. Linux servers usually come with the Apache server software, that processes site access requests. Apache is also totally free and customizable, not to mention that it's very quick and light with regard to the resources it requires. LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) is the software environment that some of the most well-known script apps require – Joomla™, WordPress, Moodle, etcetera. The LAMP configuration is the most widely used one worldwide, since it is stable as well as simple to take care of.
