“Will Apache, popular “open-source” server software for
running Web sites, become the next Linux?“
“Covalent Technology certainly hopes so. The 12-person Lincoln,

“Covalent has more to offer than just technical support and
consulting services, however. The company also sells an add-on to
Apache that enables use of “the secure sockets layer” encryption
technology, essential to private transactions such as credit card
payments.”
