We need barking dogs to fix "The PHP
Scalability Myth"

We need barking dogs to fix "The PHP
Scalability Myth" 10/29/2003 12:11 AM
This above link is a great article, but you must be an asphyxiating ostrich burrowed in the sand to say that PHP doesn't scale. It's not that slow a programming language, it has few bottlenecks, and perhaps most important - there are many case studies of large web sites using it for mission critical work (eg. Lufthansa's online booking and Yaho o).

However I do feel something is still missing from PHP. Not in the language per se, but in the conceptual overview. What we really need are dogs barking and cats meowing in our very own virtual Pet Shop. For people who don't understand this reference, the Pet Shop is famous web application created to demonstrate best practices in scalability and software design for J2EE and .NET.

In contrast, there is no reference PHP Pet Shop, and no accepted and well-documented methodology on how to create scalable web-sites with PHP. So you need to be very smart, or get the advice of technical gurus to keep everything scalable and running smoothly. It's no accident that Yahoo, perhaps the biggest web-site that has invested heavily in PHP, employs so many cool cats who have a deep knowledge of PHP such as Rasmus and Andrei.

Update: Slashdot discusses this article. I liked this comment best:

The sad reality is that so few developers know enough to fully exploit J2EE that they wind up doing little more than what PHP does better in the first place.

True wisdom is knowing your limitations (18 Oct 2003).
