Speaking of the development of PHP in recent years, it can be said that it has advanced by leaps and bounds. EDC statistics in 2006 indicate that PHP has joined the ranks of the three programming languages in the world, and it competes as a Web scripting language. The other two languages (Java and .net) are general-purpose languages (can develop a variety of applications). However, it is incredible that PHP's current development rate is 37% significantly higher than the other two languages.
At the same time in China, PHP is also developing very rapidly. Currently in Beijing, where major websites gather, PHP is almost everywhere. Baidu, Sina, Sohu, TOM and other major Internet portals are widely using this PHP. At the same time, in the past two years, many small portal sites in Beijing have mostly used PHP technology. Even the demand for PHP engineers has increased significantly. The official PHPChina.com website of PHP in China revealed that the current average salary of PHP engineers in Beijing can be twice as high as that of ASP engineers.
So, why has PHP developed so rapidly in recent years. In fact, it is closely linked to the rapid development of the Web. In addition, the rapid development of LAMP has made PHP more widely used. So here I will discuss with you the rapid development of the Web and why PHP can seize this opportunity and succeed in one fell swoop.
To sum up, there are three reasons why PHP can develop:
◆ Tailored based on the Web, the first choice of Web language, the LAMP architecture is safe and stable
◆ Simple and fast development , strong scalability
◆Development of PHP enterprise-level applications
Tailored based on the Web, the first choice of Web language, safe and stable
Participating At this year's LAMP conference, I saw one of the founders of PHP, Zeev Suraski. We also listened to the report on the overall introduction of PHP that he gave us. When listening to him talk about the original intention of developing PHP, he said that he and Andi just needed a language that was very suitable for the Web to write a project, so they found the best PHP/HI. While they were completing the project, they found that PHP/HI had great technical prospects, so they joined the research and development of PHP. Later, they developed Zend Engine together, embedded it into PHP for free, and released PHP4, allowing PHP to truly develop. .
We can find that in the subsequent series of PHP version upgrades, PHP has been adding its features around the Web. This is important for companies that plan to use PHP as the technical hosting platform for websites for a long time. Very suitable. Regarding this point, Zeev himself also said that when PHP5 was finalized, some very good features had to be removed, just to continue the stable characteristics of PHP.
I once heard the technical manager of a website say: "If you want to make software, if you want to make a website, use PHP!". We all thought this was a joke at the time, but now that we think about it, it really is. Currently, many website project leaders trust PHP. I feel that PHP is very good at supporting the Web.
Regarding the security of PHP applications, it benefits from the fact that PHP is open source. There are more than 500 PHP writing engineers in the PHP community supporting PHP, and the release of source code has won it widespread support. Of course, when talking about the security of PHP, we cannot fail to mention the LAMP architecture. The stability of the LAMP-based platform can be proven by its usage on the servers of major domestic websites.
Simple, fast development, strong scalability
During the 2006 LAMP conference, I found that when Zeev talked about the features of PHP, he first talked about ease of use. . And emphasized that this is the reason why PHP can succeed. And Zeev also emphasized that PHP will maintain a simple style so that users can develop PHP applications conveniently and quickly. It is said that when the United States was hit by a hurricane last time, the website specially built for this purpose was built using PHP, and it only took 3 days in total. Although this time seems very short, after our careful analysis, it is also possible.
I personally think this is not only the case abroad, but also in China. Personally, I believe that the benefits of simplicity are a necessary condition for the rapid growth of an enterprise. Using PHP to build a website can build a small-scale website in a very short time. As a result, a large number of "personal webmasters" have been created. In addition, PHP is also very scalable. If you use PHP to develop products, you can customize them very quickly according to customer needs. Moreover, within the extensive PHP community, a large amount of resource support can be provided for PHP development engineers. PHP development engineers can quickly obtain the projects, solutions or specific function codes he needs. At this point, many website-building product promotion companies also have deep feelings. For example, forums, CMS, online shopping, etc.
The Development of PHP Enterprise Applications
As we all know, PHP has always been considered a grassroots programming language. Therefore, a big factor that plagues the development of PHP is the recognition of large companies. The increase in PHP projects from governments and large enterprises has also been outstanding in recent years. This may be more obvious in foreign countries. It has greatly improved everyone's confidence in choosing PHP.
Judging from the global PHP annual conferences in the past two years, many large manufacturers have begun to pay attention to PHP and participate in the annual conferences. Even companies like IBM, Oracle and other companies directly cooperate with Zend to promote and improve the functions of PHP in large projects. IBM itself has also adopted PHP extensively to implement its projects.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that when large projects consider the open source LAMP architecture, they will attach great importance to whether they can obtain some technical support. As for the technical support of PHP, you should still pay attention to its founding company, Zend Technology Company. Zend has indeed done a lot of work in pushing PHP into enterprise applications. Including working with IBM and Oracle to develop Zend Core for IBM and Zend Core for Oracle, and releasing them for free. Fortunately for China, Zend has also opened its official website phpchina.com in China.
To sum up, PHP is currently at the peak of its development, but it may not have reached its peak yet for the country, so there should be many opportunities waiting for those who like PHP in China. They grasp.
