Apache

Originally from 1995 this is the OG when it comes to hosting. With RedHat Linux and CPanel, apache is one of the most stable and tried and tested methods for hosting. This is the way I was introduced to self hosting websites. While this is a great way to host something, I found NGINX to be an easier fit for my needs.

NGINX

NGINX has been around since 2004. I first discovered it around 2008 and it has been my go to web hosting solution for decades. Its ability to proxy and speediness in general are what made it work for me.
