Easy to optimize for high performance and handle heavy traffic

Most of the features I liked were related to the performance during peak hours. Because I needed to optimize the Apache web server to run it as a high performer during my customers' usage, then I needed to reduce my Apache web server resource usage for that. So that part of the thing is what I was more interested in doing. So, I mainly liked the performance and security.

"It is scalable."

"Its community is its most valuable feature. Solving problems is easier on Apache because so many people know this product."

More Apache Web Server pros

"The program is scalable."

More WebLogic Suite pros

Cons

"I want the user interface to be more user-friendly."

"A monitoring interface would be great for this product. The monitoring dashboards for Apache's models are not included in the basic installation. You can install the basic monitoring model, then connect this model to another monitoring system."

"The GUI for the less experienced users needs some improvement. For some companies, it is hard to configure it if they have not had any experience."

"There is a security-related problem that depends on the web server's configuration."

"The interface has room for improvement."

"By optimizing the infrastructure to allow the webserver to directly handle queries from memory—particularly by prioritizing the storage of queries in memory and processing them through the web server interface—I could potentially cut down the required instances from five hundred to two hundred."

"Its stability could be better."

"The major issue occurs with ports. So, I would like to see easier port management."

More Apache Web Server cons

"The restart capability needs to be improved because it takes us 15 minutes to restart any application."

"Sometimes there are issues when we work on a VM because people use it to put all of their reports on it at the same time. Then I have to restart and rebuild the machine."

"I rate the scalability of WebLogic Suite an eight out of ten."

"I noticed a few areas for improvement in WebLogic Suite. If you use the pure play higher-availability features, then yes, it can be switched over to the other system from the high-availability point of view, but that comes with a certain price. If you prefer simpler high-availability, that requires manual intervention. I'd also recommend a tuning feature in WebLogic Suite because it's not self-tuning, and this means you need thorough expertise to do the tuning and leverage the best benefit out of it. If Oracle makes WebLogic Suite automated or self-driven, then it becomes a wonderful product, similar to what Oracle did for the Autonomous Database which is self-driven or has an autonomous operating system. If automation is added in the next release of the solution, combined with more affordable pricing, though as a technical person, I know how much goes into having automation as a feature, and it could be difficult to lower the price, but if Oracle can do it, then that would make WebLogic Suite better."

"The solution needs to share more information in terms of training. There needs to be more documentation involved to help those who are completely new to the product."

"The support is not good."

"Lacking a solution for smaller applications."

"The content search is not easy."

More WebLogic Suite cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The apache software is free, open-source."

"It is an open-source solution."

"It is a free-of-cost solution."

"There is no licensing cost for the product."

"The product comes bundled with Oracle Premier Support."

"The cost of the WebLogic Suite license is a bit high."

"Scaling is costly."

"Technical support is very costly."

"There is a license required for this solution and the price could be reduced."

Overview

The Apache HTTP Server Project was founded in 1995 by a group of webmasters, known as The Apache Group, with the aim of developing robust, richly-featured, freely-available and commercial-standard Web (HTTP) server source code. The result was Apache Web Server or Apache HTTP Server, which is an open-source public-domain web server.

This collaborative project has been enhanced ever since with contributions from the core development team and other volunteers situated all over the globe. Also, hundreds of users of this open-source web server have contributed code, ideas, and documentation. The project falls under The Apache Software Foundation, which manages many open-source projects.

Oracle WebLogic Suite is an integrated solution for building onpremise cloud application infrastructures that span web server, application server and data grid technology tiers.
