'''Netscape Enterprise Server''' was a [[web server]] developed originally by [[Netscape Communications Corporation]] in 1996, based on its 1994 release of '''Netsite'''. The product was renamed [[Sun Java System Web Server]], reflecting the product's acquisition by [[Sun Microsystems]], and then, when Oracle acquired Sun in 2010,<ref>{{cite web|title=Oracle and Sun Microsystems|url=http://www.oracle.com/us/sun/index.html|website=Strategic Acquisitions|publisher=Oracle|accessdate=19 February 2015|date=February 19, 2015}}</ref> to Oracle iPlanet Web Server.<ref>{{cite web|title=Sun Software Products Map|url=http://www.oracle.com/us/sun/sun-products-map-075562.html|publisher=Oracle|accessdate=19 February 2015}}</ref>

In January 2009, Sun open sourced core components of Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 under the [[BSD licenses|BSD license]] as Open Web Server.<ref name="wsFOSS">{{cite web |url=http://wikis.sun.com/display/wsFOSS/Open+Web+Server |title=Open Web Server |work=Sun Wikis |publisher=[[Sun Microsystems]] |date=2010-01-25 |deadurl=yes |archive-url=httphttps://web.archive.org/web/20101230222831/http://wikis.sun.com/display/wsFOSS/Open+Web+Server |archive-date=2010-12-30 |access-date=2017-04-28 |df=mdy-all}}</ref><ref name="HO">{{cite web |last1=Walker-Morgan |first1=D.J. |url=http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/Sun-releases-open-fork-of-Sun-Java-System-Web-Server-739703.html |title=Sun releases open fork of Sun Java System Web Server |department=Open |work=[[The H]] |publisher=[[Heise Media UK]] |date=2009-01-18 |access-date=2017-04-28 |df=mdy-all}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last1=Virkki |first1=Jyri |url=http://blogs.sun.com/jyrivirkki/entry/announcing_open_source_web_server |title=Announcing Open Source Web Server |work=Web Tier Thoughts |publisher=[[Sun Microsystems]] |date=2009-01-13 |deadurl=yes |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090122180255/http://blogs.sun.com/jyrivirkki/entry/announcing_open_source_web_server |archive-date=2009-01-22 |access-date=2017-04-28 |df=mdy-all}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last1=Möllenkamp |first1=Jörg |url=http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/archives/5203-Open-Web-Server.html |title=Open Web Server |work=c0t0d0s0.org |publisher= |date=2009-01-14 |access-date=2017-04-28 |df=mdy-all}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last1=Aker |first1=Brian |url=http://krow.livejournal.com/630580.html |title=Netscape Enterprise Server, Now Open Source |work=Brian "Krow" Aker's Idle Thoughts |publisher=[[LiveJournal]] |date=2009-01-16 |deadurl=no |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090119025122/http://krow.livejournal.com/630580.html |archive-date=2009-01-19 |access-date=2017-04-28 |df=mdy-all}}</ref> The open source version was kept in sync with commercial releases until January 2010 (7.0 update 8).
