Assignment Instructions:
1. Web servers (and browsers) are one of the most familiar and commonly used network applications. Research and compare two Web server technologies of your choice (such as Apache® or Weblogic, for example) and discuss their differing functionalities, cost of deployment, general rate of adoption by businesses and other pertinent points. Which Web server software is most commonly used? Why? Would you be more likely to adopt an open source Web server application? Or not? What would be the advantages or disadvantages of using an open source Web server application?
2. Based on your research, write a 6-8 page paper that researches the use, adoption, and implementations of two different Web server technologies. The paper should also discuss the costs and support considerations of the Web server applications.
