# Prepare Web Server

The web server acts as the **entry point** for client requests, receiving HTTP requests from web browsers and returning HTTP responses along with application content such as web pages and static resources.

Within the ONEWEB platform, the web server is responsible for:

* Handling incoming client traffic
* Serving static content (HTML, images, assets)
* Forwarding application requests to the ONEWEB runtime layer

ONEWEB supports standard enterprise web servers, including:

* **Apache HTTP Server**
* **IBM HTTP Server**

The choice of web server depends on organizational standards, deployment architecture, and operational requirements.\
Detailed configuration and integration steps are covered in the following sub‑sections.
