SAMP at JavaOne
SAMP is Sun's open source alternative to LAMP, a software stack used for typical web deployments and Web 2.0 implementations. SAMP stands for
S - Solaris
A - Apache HTTP Server (http://www.apache.org)
M - MySQL (Open Source database)
P - PHP/Perl/Python
SAMP is built on Solaris 10 and developers who would like to continue
with their open source AMP technology now have an option to run it with Solaris instead of Linux. CoolStack, which contains AMP, along with other open source applications has been optimized for the Solaris OS. A quick Guide to SAMP is available here. And read more about CoolStack here.
SAMP will have a presence at the big event, JavaOne, that is starting tomorrow. And I am looking forward to interacting with the open source community at the SAMP pod.
Also check out Sun's Try and Buy offer or if you are currently running LAMP, a chance to win a free server with Sun's AMPlify your Web Tier Challenge.
