The following page highlights some modules that the Apache HTTP Server Project maintains that are not included in the core distribution.
The listing of all modules included in the core distribution can be found in the online documentation.
Finally, we do not maintain any detailed listing of third-party modules. You should use your favorite search engine, or have a look at code source repositories such as GitHub.
Does your CGI performance leave you wanting? Is mod_perl simply too much effort for just hosting your CGI scripts? Do you want to run PHP applications outside of your web server processes? FastCGI is the solution for you!
mod_fcgid
is an implementation of FastCGI for Apache HTTP Server 2.0 and
later which routes requests to FastCGI application processes which it
manages.

When is Apache HTTP Server not an http: server? When it's serving the same web content, via an ftp: protocol request!
This code is currently released as a beta. Volunteers are especially sought to test out the IPv6 functionality (EPRT and EPSV support).

The sandbox is where unreleased code goes to play. Browse around for some goodies that are not part of the normal Apache HTTP Server distribution, but may give you an idea about ways you can extend the server. Someone may be actively working on these bits, but they may be completely unmaintained!
The mod_aspdotnet
module has been retired by the httpd project. Every ASF
project requires multiple developers, and this project did not have enough
developers participating to remain under the ASF umbrella. Development has
been resumed by the original authors at its new home, the mod-aspdotnet
SourceForge project. Note
there is NO further support or effort on this module from the httpd
project, refer all questions on to the SourceForge project's user and
development lists.
The Quetzalcoatl mod_python
project has been retired to the attic. Note
there is NO further support or effort on this module from the httpd
project, see the attic information page below for further information. You
may also wish to research mod_wsgi
, another effort outside of the ASF.
