PHP, an open-source scripting language, is widely used for developing web applications on the Linux and Unix platforms. Unlike other solutions, PHP development often involves using multiple tools in the same space. Similarly, PHP solutions rely on many tools and frameworks other than just PHP code: tools for content creation, heightened security, and single sign-on, to name just a few. In other words, there are a lot of moving parts any time you’re working with PHP.
If that sounds overwhelming, don’t worry. Our developers have extensive experience using PHP along with a wide breadth of other tools, and we can help you choose the best components for your project based on what you need to achieve. Whether you’re working with the bare minimum or using additional tools like WordPress, Webmin, PhpStorm, or VS code, we have both the knowledge and experience to help you navigate this often confusing ecosystem and create a powerful, dependable product.
The LAMP Stack
PHP rarely stands alone; in fact, it’s just part of an overall solution that also includes Linux, Apache, and MySQL. The combination of these tools is often referred to as the LAMP stack, and each one needs to be considered when creating, modernizing, or maintaining PHP-driven solutions. Our developers are experienced in the full LAMP stack.
Linux
Linux isn’t a single operating system, but rather a network of systems used to manage hardware and system resources (like CPU, memory, and storage), and to communicate between hardware and software. We understand all the various elements of Linux and the role each one plays in your project.
Apache
The Apache HTTP Server is an open-source web server used to deploy and deliver web content through the internet. What can make Apache tricky is that it has several variations (as do all the elements in the LAMP stack). Whichever variation your project calls for, we can help manage it to successfully host your solution.
MySQL
MySQL is a database management system, and is often associated with the closely related MariaDB, an open-source relational database created by the same developers. We’ve worked with many databases and data-driven solutions, including in terms of accounting for business continuity and data recovery, and are highly familiar with both MySQL and MariaDB.
Managing all the moving parts of PHP development is a daunting task, even for the most basic of websites. Luckily for you, our developers have the expertise to handle everything so you can simply focus on making sure your website meets its goals.
We have experience in the following:
We use a wide range of tools for PHP solutions, including low-level tools for connectivity and command level interactions; and high-level implementation and monitoring tools like Webmin, phpMyAdmin, and PhpStorm. In addition to all the tools in the LAMP stack, we use additional strategies that work in conjunction with these tools, such as Git repositories and Bitbucket.
When it comes to our preferred PHP toolset, we don’t have one. Instead, we work with your existing tools, or whichever tools you’re most comfortable with. Of course, if needed, we’re always happy to advise you on which technology will best fit your project.
