# the subject
What is Apache HTTP Server?
Apache HTTP Server handles inbound HTTP: serving static content, reverse-proxying to application servers, terminating TLS, and applying rewrites, authentication and access control at the edge. Its behaviour is driven by a module system and a configuration language whose directive scoping — server, virtual host, directory, location — determines what actually applies. Most confusing Apache behaviour comes from that scoping, or from the order in which modules process a request. Understanding the request lifecycle is what turns configuration from trial and error into something you can reason about.
Why it's in demand now
An enormous amount of production traffic still passes through Apache, particularly in enterprise and hosting environments, and someone has to configure TLS correctly, keep the modules patched, and diagnose why a rewrite rule is not firing. It is also the layer where a surprising number of security misconfigurations live.
# outcomes
What you'll be able to do
Configure virtual hosts and understand directive scope and precedence
Terminate TLS with a configuration that scores well and stays current
Reverse-proxy to an application server with sensible timeouts and headers
Write rewrite rules you can explain and debug
Read the logs well enough to diagnose a 502 or a redirect loop
# curriculum
4 modules. Live demos in a real lab, not slides.
Every module follows the same shape: 5 hrs · 2 assignments · 1 capstone.

# questions
Frequently asked questions
Do you provide a lab environment for Apache HTTP Server?
No, and that is deliberate. You build the labs on your own free-tier account, and we walk through the setup and the cost guardrails in week one. A sandbox that expires when the course ends teaches you nothing you keep; your own environment does.
What if I miss a session?
Every session is recorded and available in the LMS the same day, and you keep access for a year. You can also sit the missed session again with the next cohort at no extra cost.
What do I need to know before starting Apache HTTP Server?
Comfortable on a Linux shell; Understanding of HTTP and DNS; Basic TLS concepts. If you are unsure whether you are ready, tell us what you work on now and we will give you a straight answer rather than a sales one.
Is there a certificate, and is it worth anything?
You get an industry-recognised DevOpsSchool certificate after the three-hour open-book exam. Most people find the capstone repositories carry more weight in an interview than the certificate itself, which is why the labs are built to be shown.
Can you run Apache HTTP Server as a private batch for our team?
Yes. We build the agenda from your stack after a discovery call and drop anything your team already runs in production. Teams of 8 to 30 work best; larger groups split into parallel batches.
What is your refund policy?
If we cancel or postpone a cohort and you decline the rescheduled session, you get a full refund within 15 days. We do not offer a general money-back guarantee, and taxes and gateway fees are not refunded.
Do you offer instalments or EMI?
No. The fee is charged once at enrolment. Where we show a monthly figure it is arithmetic to help you size the cost against a budget, not a payment plan.
Where is this delivered from, and in which timezone?
Sessions are taught from India in IST. The weekday cohort runs in the IST evening and the weekend cohort in the IST morning, and the batch table above converts both to your local time. Everything is recorded, so a difficult timezone is inconvenient rather than disqualifying.
Can I attend in person?
Only in Bengaluru and Hyderabad, where we have training centres, and only when six or more learners in that city book the same cohort. Everywhere else the same batch runs live online, or onsite at your office for a corporate group.
