I ordered litespeed web server hosting but under site health it shows Apache server. In cpanel also I see apache handlers. Are there any other ways to check about the webserver. When I talked about it from support they said it is showing because of cloudflare.

make a file on your website root folder with following content:

PHP:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

access the url from a web browser: https://your.domain/yourfile.php

If on Server API section says LiteSpeed then you're running on a LiteSpeed server.

Probably yes. It is possible that hey have both apache and litespeed running but your website is served by apache

If you have SSH access to your server then you can further check by issuing these 2 commands from CLI:

ps -ef | grep litespeed

If appear a running process with pid then issue the next one:

netstat -ntpl | grep ':80'

It will tell you which web server is listening on 80 port

Example: for one of my servers the result is ('Ive underlined and bold the web server name)

tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 405000/nginx: maste
tcp6 0 0 :::80 :::* LISTEN 405000/nginx: maste

Is there any easy way for a newbie like me, like by using IP address?

Not quite, it also involves using *nix CLI commands

if using wordpress under site health it will give you server information as well.

it could also be using litespeed with apache handlers as well.

Not related to this service, but how do I find if the server uses HDD, SSD or Nvme type storage?
