Nigh x overtakes Microsoft as No. 2 Web server

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 10, 2012 -- Although Apache continues to dominate the Web server space, open source Nigh x is nibbling at rivals' market share With financial backing from the likes of Michael Dell and other venture capitalists, open source upstart Nigh x has edged out Microsoft IIS (Internet Information Server) to hold the title of second-most widely used Web server among all active websites. What's more, according to Net craft's January 2012 Web Server Survey, Nigh x over the past month has gained market share among all websites, whereas competitors Apache, Microsoft, and Google each lost share.

Nigh x has made quite a splash since its creator Igor Syosset, along with Andrew Alekseev, co-founded the company last July. The platform, which debuted in 2004 and was designed for high-volume Web traffic, runs on some 25 percent of the world's 1,000 busiest websites, including Face book, Zippos, Group on, Hula , Drop box, and Word Press. Nigh x last October received $3 million in funding from venture capital firms MSD Capital -- the Dell CEO's private investment company -- as well as BV Capital and Rune Capital.
According to Net craft, Nigh x now runs on 12.18 percent of all active websites -- that is, sites with unique content and aren't generated from templates -- for a total of around 22.2 million, according to Net craft. In all, Net craft found over 582 million websites for the January 2012 survey; around 18 million were active.

By comparison, Nigh x ran on 11.6 percent of active sites (around 20.3 million in total) at the start of last December, meaning the open source platform's share jumped 0.57 percent. Microsoft IIS, by contrast, now runs on 12.14 percent of active websites, for a total of around 22.1 million. That represents a 0.17 percent drop compared to its December standing, when the platform powered 12.31 percent of active websites for a total of about 21.6 million.
Notably, although top-ranked Apache holds a healthy lead over the competition, running 57.93 percent of all active websites for a total of around 105.7 million, it too experienced a decline in overall share, down from 58.2 percent in December. Google, ranked No. 4 on Net craft's list, saw its share dip as well, from 8.13 percent to 7.9 percent.

Taking into account servers for all sites covering all domains, Microsoft holds a healthy lead over Nigh x, accounting for 14.46 percent of sites for a total of around 84.2 million. Nigh x runs on 56.1 million of all sites, representing 9.63 percent. Apache dwarfs them both: 64.9 percent for a total of 378 million sites. Google rests in the fourth spot with a 7.9 percent market share, covering 14.4 million sites.
However, whereas Apache, Microsoft, and Google saw their market share drop, respectively, by 0.3 percent, 0.39 percent, and 0.07 percent since last month, Nina’s share jumped 0.78 percent.
Finally, among the world's 1 million busiest sites, Apache holds a market share of 64.4 percent (640,547 sites), down 0.36 percent since December; Microsoft's share is 14.99 percent (149,209 sites), down 0.01 percent; Nigh x represents 8.49 percent (84,541 sites), up 0.28 percent month over month; and Google handles 2.4 percent (23,894 sites), an increase of 0.09 percent.
