The only thing keeping Apache alive today is the need to support .htaccess files for PHP apps like WordPress and the like. For every other use case there are better alternatives.

That's what I use it for. Nginx just doesn't offer the same features
Most of our Ruby/JS apps is HAProxy sending traffic to dynamic side directly, and to NGINX for static paths
Can you back that up? I don't think that's true.
