In computing, the Apache HTTP Server, an open-source HTTP server, comprises a small core for HTTP request/response processing and for Multi-Processing Modules (MPM) which dispatches data processing to threads and/or processes. Many additional modules (or "mods"[1] ) are available to extend the core functionality for special purposes.
The following is a list of all the first- and third-party modules available for the Apache web server:
| Name | Compatibility | Status | Developer(s) | License | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| mod_access | Versions older than 2.1 | Included by Default | Apache Software Foundation | Apache License, Version 2.0 | Provides access control based on the client and the client's request[2] |
| mod_actions | Versions 1.1 and later | Included by Default | Apache Software Foundation | Apache License, Version 2.0 | Provides CGI ability based on request method and media type[3] |

| mod_asis | Versions 1.3 and later | Included by Default | Apache Software Foundation | Apache License, Version 2.0 | Allows for the use of files that contain their own HTTP headers[5] |
| mod_aspdotnet | Apache License, Version 2.0 | No longer under the Apache Software Foundation umbrella. Development has been resumed by the original authors at its new home, the mod-aspdotnet SourceForge project. | |||
| mod_auth | Versions older than 2.1 | Included by Default | Apache Software Foundation | Apache License, Version 2.0 | Authenticates users via Basic access authentication by checking against plaintext password and group files. In Apache 2.1 and later, this plaintext authentication is enabled by mod_authn_file instead.[6] |
| mod_auth_anon | Versions 1.1-2.1 | Stable Extension | Apache Software Foundation | Apache License, Version 2.0 | Allows authentication with a special user id of 'anonymous' and an email address as the password. As an authentication mechanism, this was replaced by mod_authn_anon.[7] |
| mod_auth_basic | Versions 2.1 and newer | Included by Default | Apache Software Foundation | Apache License, Version 2.0 | Authenticates users via HTTP Basic Authentication, the backend mechanism for verifying user authentication is left to configurable providers, usually other Apache modules.
