Are there any free alternatives to adding PHP to a server that does not include it?

To add PHP to a server without including it, one alternative is to use a PHP runtime like PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) or PHP-PM (PHP Process Manager) that can run PHP applications without the need for a server module. These runtimes can be configured to work with web servers like Nginx or Apache via FastCGI. By using a PHP runtime, you can avoid the need to install PHP directly on the server.
