Geoserver is an open source server for sharing geospatial data.
Geoserver is designed for interoperatability, which means that is can publish data from any major spatial data source to another, as long as they adhere to open standards as well.
GeoServer can also display data on any of the popular mapping applications such as Google Maps, Google Earth, Microsoft Bing Maps, and MapBox. In addition, GeoServer can connect with traditional GIS architectures such as ESRI ArcGIS and QGIS.
You find all info about it on the Geoserver website.
