A computer running Web server software, such as Apache or Internet Information Server
(IIS).
The PHP server module installed on the same computer. This module talks to the Web
server software; this is the PHP engine that actually does the work of running your PHP
scripts.
If you want to build database - driven Web applications — you also need a database
server installed. Options include MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server.
