October 2004 Web Server Survey | |
|

| Time: 02:19 EST/07:19 GMT | News Source: ActiveWin.com | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

Thanks Bruce. "Just five months after crossing the 50-million site threshold, our survey has topped 55 million sites for October 2004, receiving responses from 55,388,466 sites. That's a gain of 981K from the September survey, continuing the recent trend in which Internet growth has averaged roughly 1 million sites a month. It tracks the growth pattern seen during the expansion from 45 to 50 million sites, which also took just five months (December 2003 to May 2004). The first Netcraft survey in August 1995 found 18,957 hosts. The dominant operating system was Windows, with six of the top most reliable sites running on a Microsoft operating system, evenly split between Windows Server 2003 and Windows 2000." | ||

Looks like Windows and BSD are by far the most reliable web servers.
Linux sux like every good web administrator knows. |

All your comments resemble satire or a joke. But face it the data clearly shows Linux trailing in reliability. IIS will outperform both and BSD will outperform Linux as any web administrator knows. Pleas tell me what all the most popular sites use. And it is not Linsux. |

You are a clueless idiot. Anybody with an iota of knowledge about the Internet knows that Yahoo has always been on FreeBSD. The only one of those sites other than Yahoo, in the top 25 most visited is Amazon. |

That you didn't know what Yahoo was running for a web server, is proof of your utter lack of knowledge. Like I said go back in live in your Linux fantasy world. Or go to /. |

I cant follow at all. Yahoo was probably the first famous web site and all articles were discussing their use of FreeBSD. I guess you didn't read them because there was no mention of your beloved Linsux.. That's all I use Windows or BSD. Never Linsux |

It doesn't really matter what Yahoo, Google or Amazon uses.
What matters is what I use, and I use Windows 2003 with IIS6. |

LOL! So I went to netcraft and looked up our systems at work.
They're all coming up as Unknown as far as OS and web server. The reality is, they're windows servers sitting behind a Big/Ip load balancer, sitting behind a firewall. It's obviously incapable of detecting it because of the various layers. Big/Ip runs FreeBSD, as do most of the load balancers out there, which is why you see that one show up on the OS list of stable systems so often. This is even explained in the Netcraft FAQ. And if our work systems, which consist of some 100 web servers dont' show up properly, my assumption is the same is true of other large enterprise environments. At which point you have to wonder just how useful is this data? |
| #9 By 23275 (68.17.42.38) at 10/9/2004 7:47:21 AM |
| A lot of centers run using a single IP topology. There is no way netcraft can tell what is behind such environments and their site FAQs state this. While we are very small in relative terms, we do run a few hundred servers in two centers - none of which add to the W2K3 count as they should. Further, the many more sites and applications running on them do not add to the count, either. I suspect this is true for a great many hosts of all sizes - making any reliable assessment difficult. What's the value of the data? For what purpose - to show how many people and enterprises agree or disagree with one's choice of one web server over another? What value does that have? |
