Apache webserver skills requested in 30 projects, mostly at senior level

Apache is an open-source webserver that receives requests from clients and provides web content. The software is deployed to make websites, web applications, and APIs available on the internet or in intranets. It manages communication between users and servers, processes HTTP requests, and delivers corresponding responses. Configuration and management of this webserver are fundamental tasks in the infrastructure of many organizations.

Organizations seek professionals with Apache expertise primarily for setup, configuration, and maintenance of webservers. Typical tasks include optimizing server performance, managing virtual hosts, and implementing security measures such as SSL/TLS encryption. Freelancers are frequently engaged to troubleshoot existing Apache installations or update them to new versions. Integration with other web development technologies is also among regular requirements.

Methodology: We count IT postings of the last 90 days that mention Apache. Projects posted several times that are detected as duplicates count once; postings without an assignable IT category are missing, so the figures are a lower bound. The trend compares the share of all IT postings with the 90 days before and only appears with enough comparison data. We do not show figures based on fewer than 30 data points. Distributions only refer to postings that state the respective attribute; we state the coverage alongside. The description of the skill is created automatically (from our skill directory or by AI) and checked by machine: no numbers, no company names, only the skill and its neighbours in the taxonomy. Texts are created and checked automatically, numbers come from the postings.
