Java versus PHP
Monday, June 22nd, 2009Let’s cut to the chase: these are the reasons we moved away from PHP and focused on Java, as we developed more complex applications:
1.PHP is an interpreted language (the same is true of Python and Ruby, incidentally), Java is a compiled one. The nature of Java allows us to find many of the errors at an early stage, which makes an application more stable. Some simple errors in PHP code can be found only during application testing or even after release.
