Came here to plug the GT.M version of MUMPS, which is really great. It uses the underlying UNIX system as much as possible (so, for example, your routines are not stored in the database!)

InterSystems Caché ships with Apache as an administrative web server for its Management Portal, through which you can also run all applications.

It ships with modules for Apache and IIS (ISAPI), and probably others. These come with a little ini file that's meant to sit in the same directory.
