Forget LAMP use LNMP




Welcome folks. We have quite a few posts and praisings for LAMP architecture, but from now on there is a clear and better alternative – LNMP.

LNMP stands for Linux, Nginx, MySQL and PHP.

This is clearly the winner because of it’s performance and reliability you can count on.  Bundle the front-end Nginx web server with Memcached and you can serve millions of daily hits with easy on a simple commodity software. Stay tunned for more news!

Ps. for folks that still use LAMP – don’t panic, we suggest using LAMP as well, but for best performance just swap Apache with Nginx and voila !
