APACHE Workshop
An Apache webserver training course which provides a
technical introduction to installing, configuring and managing the
Apache web server and to supporting CGI programming on the Apache
server. This Apache course is delivered over two days in our public
schedule, but a selected subset of the course can be delivered to
experienced development teams on an in-house basis.
It is common for such in-house apache training courses to select
particular families of Apache modules and application servers to focus
on. For example, Java oriented development teams will typically create
a
Tomcat training course focusing on the tomcat servlet container,
excluding less relevant topics like mod_perl and including material
from
our Java programming courses. Perl programmers will typically ignore
tomcat and may want to add Perl programming topics from elsewhere.
Something similar may apply for PHP shops.
