RE: [PHP4BETA] JSP vs. PHP - Two vs. Three Teir

JSP vs. PHP - Two vs. Three TeirAre we talking 3 tier or 4 tier? I would call a browser (tier 1), a web server (tier 2), and a database (tier 3). A four tier model, browser (tier 1), web server (tier 2), some middleware (tier 3), and a database (tier 4), is very difficult to make efficient. Also, php does not mean no Java. If you have java services you can call them using php if you wish. --pk -----Original Message----- From: Michael Nino [mailto:mnino@Insight.com] Sent: Thursday, April 06, 2000 10:32 AM To: php4beta@lists.php.net Cc: 'ssb@fast.no' Subject: [PHP4BETA] JSP vs. PHP - Two vs. Three Teir Hi, We have been evaluating applications servers written Java, JSP and PHP. We have a need to implement a three-teir model. Since JSP (and applications servers) provide "services" (aka daemons) inside the JVM, how can PHP accomplish the same persistent services. Does some C code need to be written and serviced via a PHP extension to all PHP scripts? Your opinions are *very* important to us. If any one could comment on how PHP is best suited for three-teir, we would be very appreciative. It works well for our Intranet and rapid application development but if I had sum it up in one question it would be: How can PHP run as a service or daemon? thanks guys! michael -----Original Message----- From: Derek Sivers [mailto:list@hitmedia.com] Sent: Thursday, April 06, 2000 8:29 AM To: Martin Pavlas; php4beta@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP4BETA] Credit Cards and PHP4 At 04:49 AM 4/6/00 , Martin Pavlas wrote: >what I can use for payment via >credit cards.

It's even one of the options in compiling PHP4. ((--with-cybercash=/ or something)) You have to get all hooked up with CyberCash first, do that mess, get your "MCK" download and install it, and THEN recompile PHP4 with it, included. The CyberCash site has pre-configured MCK kits for Linux Redhat 6. So - YES - it's do-able. -- PHP 4.0 Beta Mailing List <http://www.php.net/version4/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: php4beta-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php4beta-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php4beta-admin@lists.php.net
