ASP.NET And IIS Serve More Fortune 1000 Sites Than Any Other Web Server Technologies
By Port80 Software, Inc.
A new survey of the 2005 Fortune 1000 Web sites reports that
Microsoft's ASP.NET, ASP, and Internet Information Services
(IIS) serve the majority of leading U.S. corporate sites.
The Top 1000 Application Servers Survey conducted last month
by Port80 Software, a developer of tools for IIS Web servers,
was the first to examine application server and scripting
engine deployments among the Fortune 1000. Application servers
and scripting platforms like Microsoft's ASP.NET and classic
ASP, Java platforms (such as BEA's WebLogic, IBM's WebSphere,
and Sun's J2EE and JavaServer Pages), Macromedia's ColdFusion,
and PHP enable dynamic Web sites, e-commerce, and most Internet-based
software applications. The Top 1000 Application Servers Survey
results from May 2005 Web requests to each 2005 Fortune 1000
company's main Web site were:
Microsoft platforms (ASP.NET, ASP): 43.6%
Java platforms (J2EE, JSP, WebLogic, WebSphere, Tomcat):
12.2%
PHP: 5.2%
ColdFusion: 2.7%
Perl: 2.3%
Python (Zope): 0.1%
In addition to the new survey, Port80 Software updated its
Top 1000 Web Servers Survey, which analyzes the Web server
software used by Fortune 1000 sites. Web servers work in tandem
with application servers and scripting environments to deliver
Web content. New results from Port80 Software's updated May
2005 survey of 2005 Fortune 1000 corporate Web server market
share were:
Microsoft IIS: 53.7%
Apache: 22.7%
Other Web servers: 12.8%
Netscape Enterprise: 10.8%
Microsoft IIS has led this survey since its inception in
2003 and now claims a 53.7% share of servers hosting the largest
public-facing corporate sites. Further inspection of Microsoft's
platform mix shows IIS 6.0 usage has grown significantly to
12.8% of 2005 Fortune 1000 Web servers.

This complimentary research also surveys HTTP compression and
cache control technologies used by the Fortune 1000 to accelerate
and optimize Web serving.
