Well, the title is "Nginx Vs Apache in AWS", not "Nginx from apt-get Vs Apache from apt-get in AWS". If you can't install the latest stable releases, then don't write a comparison about them.

I don't know what versions are provided by the "amazon Linux AMI" (which the article cites as the image) but I would venture to guess that those are probably the standard (which would make the title apt)

Both are available in the Amazon Linux AMI:

httpd.x86_64 : Apache HTTP Server

httpd24.x86_64 : Apache HTTP Server

Btw, there is also specially tuned Nginx AMI: https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B00A04GAG4/
