The internet is very dynamic. For a website to keep running even many years after development, it should be built on the most established and latest technologies.

 

Web servers are the computers on which the website is stored. The web server software is updated from time to time to fix bugs or to support new features. Just like the software on phones or computers, which also receives regular updates. Without such updates, no further development would be possible and there would be no videos on websites, no online shops and no online banking.

At some point, the time comes when the software of a website is so old that it no longer works on current web servers. To prevent this, it makes sense to use established systems that are continuously developed and easy to update, so that the website can always run on current servers.

 

Over the short history of the internet — here is a link to the very, very first website from 1990 — it has become clear that the most secure and longest-lasting systems are based on open-source software. This is software whose source code is publicly accessible and can be modified and used. One example is Linux , which runs on most servers (and rockets) and whose source code anyone can contribute to here:
