What is Apache in this context? Tomcat?
I don't know. Is Tomcat some version of Apache server? It says 'apache2' at my localhost while installing the server, and at the webhost I don't know (might be some other server that can run PHP). I usually don't dive deep into server territory, so I'm a lucky guy that I can focus on the design and the webdev.
Apache Tomcat is a web server for Java web applications, different from the Apache HTTP server (your 'apache2').
Is it all running on Linux by chance?
I have a hard time finding out if this is also some wordplay, like my own. But yes, it's running Linux at home and probably also at the webhost.
Probably not, because it will be LAMP otherwise.
