LAMP Grid Application Server, No More J2EE

Posted by michael on Sunday November 21, 2004 @11:08PM from the corporate-duct-tape dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Check out this blog entry in Loosely Coupled about ActiveGrid's new open source Grid Application Server based on the LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP/Python/Perl) stack. Not to start another PHP vs. Java flame war, but it looks like LAMP is starting to grow up, and that it is much better suited for next generation applications than J2EE."

Can you use Postgres instead of MySQL in LAMP, without extreme pain?
Yes, but then it would be LAPP, and that doesn't sound as good in meetings... you can't use puns about the light coming on, illumination, brilliance, etc then... or dazzle the CEO with tech-babble along the lines of "LAMP outperforms J2EE because it has more Lumens".
