Apache Struts

Apache Geronimo

Apache Tomcat
Web application server that implements the Java Servlet and Java Server Pages specifications. By itself, doesn't provide all the functions for enterprise connectivity functionality (such as support for Enterprise JavaBeans to represent a corporate data model) you would find in a more Geronimo or JBoss.
http://tomcat.apache.org

JBoss
Popular Java application server, backed by Red Hat.

PHP
One of the most popular open source languages for Web development, built around a model where snippets of code can be embedded in HTML pages. Used by large Web operations such as Yahoo (where PHP creator Rasmus Lerdorf works), Facebook, and others. Functionality can be extended with many PHP-based development frameworks, object libraries, and templating engines.

Ruby/Ruby on Rails
Although the Ruby programming language deserves attention in its own right, it has become far more popular since the introduction of the Ruby on Rails Web development framework. Ruby on Rails aims to make Web developers more productive with a "convention over configuration" design philosophy that provides default configuration choices and auto-generated "scaffolding" for common database and user interface programming tasks.
