Apache web server is widely used web server software for web sites hosting and back to backup Nginx and other servers are there. This course will take you from the basic web server concept to the advanced topics in Apache. This course is mainly focused on concept of Apache and their associated modules.

Topics in the training are good. The instructor seems to knows what he is talking about, however the audio is horrible in some videos, we can hear lot of noise in the background.

Las lecciones no tienen un órden lógico. Si sigues el curso tratando de hacer los laboratorios en algún punto no sabes ni qué hacer porque el instructor habla de algunas configuraciones que no se han hecho, ya después resulta que eso se ve en lecciones más adelante. La calidad del audio es horrible en algunos videos pues tienen mucho eco y en algunos tiene parches que te interrumpen la concentración. No entiendo por qué está clasificado como uno de los mejores cursos e incluso lo ofrecen cuando te suscribes a Udemy, quedé sumamente frustrado por tan mal curso.

This was very concise and clear. I would love to take more courses from you because I love how the videos were not too long and yet were both informative and practical.

everything about this course is amazing, I just wished if you added few high level lecture on how to use httpd on a docker and kubernetes environment

Instructor is a world class expert in his understanding and capabilities with HTTPD. I learned a lot. However the class was frustrating at times due to the communication style of the instructor. English is not his first language and his speaking cadence is very, very fast and his pronunciation makes some topics difficult to understand. As others have suggested the recordings volume constancy and quality is not professional and add to the communication frustration of taking this class. Particularity modules 49 and 57. Some other modules have tuk-tuk horns honking or dogs barking in the background. Course would have a higher rating if it was bit more polished and professional.

Die behandelten Themen waren gut verständlich. Einige Materialien könnten etwas ausgebaut werden - z.B. HA oder Sicherheit (speziell hier wird nicht auf Ubuntu-Unterschiede eingegangen - es sei security.conf genannt). Dazu wäre auch etwas mehr Hintergund wünschenswert. Abschnitt 14 (ModSecurity) bringt kaum Materialien mit - wenn man z.B. das LogFormat verwenden will, muss man es relativ mühsam extrahieren oder tippen. Ansonsten ein empfehlenswerter Kurs.

I don't understand why this is a bestseller. The tutor knows his stuff but he glances over things. Sometimes he's explaining things and then just cuts off mid sentence and moves on the something else. Also the lectures are not given in proper order. Sound quality of some videos are terrible and in some videos his putty sessions are not even fully visible. It got to the point that I just checked the word documents (which also contain errors that he mentioned in the videos but didn't fix in the documents for some reason) and skipped the videos all together

Disappointed the volume is not uniform...sometimes speaks way too fast. But so far able to add some additional knowledge from the content.

The depth of detail provided varies greatly during the early sections and seems to go from detailed explanations for some items in the configuration files while almost skipping over others. I would prefer more details than less. It seems as though some videos were rushed and the language is unclear. The pattern tends to be that when the sound is louder, the lecture is of a poorer quality and the content is less useful.

He is a great instructor. He explains everything clearly. He pay attention to the details of the subject matter being taught.

Excellent content. Teacher has listened to the students and has updated the content on demand. Never had any problem in following and doing the stuff throughout course. Thank you ?

I really learned a lot an enjoyed the course. I now have a deep understanding of all the configurations you can do in Apache. My only criticism is that on the mod_security section, it seems there was some prep work that wasn't covered in the lecture. I wasn't able to get it working and I was using CentOS 7 as was recommended. Not a big deal as I'll just do some research. I am confident I'll figure it out.

Thank you very very much for making such a resourceful Apache course. I have gone through multiple other courses for same topic and I got very limited information to learn. This course have a covered almost all parts in Apache. Security topic on Apache have explained in length and it is explained in very easy way which I really like the most. There a lot to learn from this course. So, much information in one course with so less price. I genuinely feel, that the Course is truely have been made for Students to master in Apache and not to invest their money in multiple other courses. Thanks you very much again!!

The sound in some practice parts is very poor and hard to understand. Otherwise, the course is very good and has helped me.
