==History==

'''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|accessdateaccess-date=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|accessdateaccess-date=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 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://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 |url-status=dead |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 |url-status=live |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). Since Oracle's acquisition of Sun, there have been no further open source releases.

In 2010, Oracle renamed the product from Sun Java System Web Server to Oracle iPlanet Web Server,<ref>[http://www.oracle.com/us/sun/sun-products-map-075562.html Sun Software Products map]</ref> although documentation and links are still in the process of being updated to reflect this.
