This weekend, I switched our webserver from Apache 2.2 using name-based virtual hosts to Lighttpd 1.4.18. This was something I wanted to do for month now, since Lighttpd seems to be much easier to configure and maintain when it comes to name-based virtual hosts, FastCGI applications (like Ruby on Rails) and SSL. Since Lighttpd gains more and more popularity, there were almost no problems migrating from Apache to Lighttpd. Especially name-based virtual hosts are easier to configure in Lighttpd.
