MySQL + PHP
MySQL + PHP: These two technologies combined are a very powerful way to create dynamic websites and web applications that actually interact with your website visitors. While HTML can create useful and well formatted web pages, you throw in PHP and MySQL and you can collect data from your users, create specific content on the fly, grab that data and do many things that straight HTML based web apps can’t.
The best part of PHP is that it is designed to be used along with HTML. We can place and use PHP right inside your existing HTML website and web application content, or put HTML tags right inside your PHP coding. These two technologies do not make your existing HTML obsolete, instead we can add to it to give it more functionality and abilities – flare if you will.

MySQL + PHP the Objective Perspective
The MySQL database server provides the ultimate in scalability, sporting the capacity to handle deeply embedded applications with a footprint of only 1MB to running massive data warehouses holding terabytes of information. Platform flexibility is a stalwart feature of MySQL with all flavors of Linux, UNIX, and Windows being supported. And, of course, the open source nature of MySQL allows complete customization for those wanting to add unique requirements to the database server.
A unique storage-engine architecture allows database professionals to configure the MySQL database server specifically for particular applications, with the end result being amazing performance results. Whether the intended application is a high-speed transactional processing system or a high-volume web site that services a billion queries a day, MySQL can meet the most demanding performance expectations of any system. With high-speed load utilities, distinctive memory caches, full text indexes, and other performance-enhancing mechanisms, MySQL offers all the right ammunition for today’s critical business systems.
MySQL offers one of the most powerful transactional database engines on the market. Features include complete ACID (atomic, consistent, isolated, durable) transaction support, unlimited row-level locking, distributed transaction capability, and multi-version transaction support where readers never block writers and vice-versa. Full data integrity is also assured through server-enforced referential integrity, specialized transaction isolation levels, and instant deadlock detection.
MySQL is the de-facto standard for high-traffic web sites because of its high-performance query engine, tremendously fast data insert capability, and strong support for specialized web functions like fast full text searches. These same strengths also apply to data warehousing environments where MySQL scales up into the terabyte range for either single servers or scale-out architectures. Other features like main memory tables, B-tree and hash indexes, and compressed archive tables that reduce storage requirements by up to eighty-percent make MySQL a strong standout for both web and business intelligence applications.
Because guarding the data assets of corporations is the number one job of database professionals, MySQL offers exceptional security features that ensure absolute data protection. In terms of database authentication, MySQL provides powerful mechanisms for ensuring only authorized users have entry to the database server, with the ability to block users down to the client machine level being possible. SSH and SSL support are also provided to ensure safe and secure connections. A granular object privilege framework is present so that users only see the data they should, and powerful data encryption and decryption functions ensure that sensitive data is protected from unauthorized viewing. Finally, backup and recovery utilities provided through MySQL and third party software vendors allow for complete logical and physical backup as well as full and point-in-time recovery.
One of the reasons MySQL is the world’s most popular open source database is that it provides comprehensive support for every application development need. Within the database, support can be found for stored procedures, triggers, functions, views, cursors, ANSI-standard SQL, and more. For embedded applications, plug-in libraries are available to embed MySQL database support into nearly any application. MySQL also provides connectors and drivers (ODBC, JDBC, etc.) that allow all forms of applications to make use of MySQL as a preferred data management server. It doesn’t matter if it’s PHP, Perl, Java, Visual Basic, or .NET, MySQL offers application developers everything they need to be successful in building database-driven information systems.
MySQL offers exceptional quick-start capability with the average time from software download to installation completion being less than fifteen minutes. This rule holds true whether the platform is Microsoft Windows, Linux, Macintosh, or UNIX. Once installed, self-management features like automatic space expansion, auto-restart, and dynamic configuration changes take much of the burden off already overworked database administrators. MySQL also provides a complete suite of graphical management and migration tools that allow a DBA to manage, troubleshoot, and control the operation of many MySQL servers from a single workstation. Many third party software vendor tools are also available for MySQL that handle tasks ranging from data design and ETL, to complete database administration, job management, and performance monitoring.
Many corporations are hesitant to fully commit to open source software because they believe they can’t get the type of support or professional service safety nets they currently rely on with proprietary software to ensure the overall success of their key applications. The questions of indemnification come up often as well. These worries can be put to rest with MySQL as complete around-the-clock support as well as indemnification is available through MySQL Enterprise. MySQL is not a typical open source project as all the software is owned and supported by Oracle, and because of this, a unique cost and support model are available that provides a unique combination of open source freedom and trusted software with support.
By migrating current database-drive applications to MySQL, or using MySQL for new development projects, corporations are realizing cost savings that many times stretch into seven figures. Accomplished through the use of the MySQL database server and scale-out architectures that utilize low-cost commodity hardware, corporations are finding that they can achieve amazing levels of scalability and performance, all at a cost that is far less than those offered by proprietary and scale-up software vendors. In addition, the reliability and easy maintainability of MySQL means that database administrators don’t waste time troubleshooting performance or downtime issues, but instead can concentrate on making a positive impact on higher level tasks that involve the business side of data.
MySQL Enterprise Database Development
Scalability, consistent fast performance, high reliability, robust transactional support, ease of use, and open source licensing are just a sample of the many reasons why MySQL is the world’s most popular open source database.
MySQL is used in more than 11 million installations ranging from large and small corporations, organizations, and specialized embedded applications including Facebook®, Google®, Adobe®, Alcatel Lucent® and Zappos® rely on MySQL to save time and money powering their high-volume Web sites, business-critical systems and packaged software.

We ARE database experts and understand the issues and challenges our clients face in today’s competitive online market place. Our highly skilled MySQL technical staff that can troubleshoot AND solve any issues you may be experiencing, or build you the custom web application or website better and typically a lot faster than most in-house staff or those offshore companies.
We use MySQL in almost 99% of our web applications and websites – even some of the most popular CMS web solutions like WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal usually have MySQL as their back-end database of choice – and we play with all of those tools and toys.
PHP Coding and Website Development
PHP is used on more than 300 million websites and 3 million web servers.
Originally created by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1994, the reference implementation of PHP (powered by the Zend Engine) is now produced by The PHP Group. While PHP originally stood for Personal Home Page, it now stands for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, which is a recursive backronym.
PHP code can be simply mixed with HTML code, or it can be used in combination with various templating engines and web frameworks. PHP code is usually processed by a PHP interpreter, which is usually implemented as a web server’s native module or a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) executable.
PHP can be used on all major operating systems, including Linux, many Unix variants (including HP-UX, Solaris and OpenBSD), Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, RISC OS. PHP has also support for most of the web servers today. This includes Apache, IIS, and many others. And this includes any web server that can utilize the FastCGI PHP binary, like lighttpd and nginx. PHP works as either a module, or as a CGI processor.
With PHP you are not limited to output HTML. PHP’s abilities include outputting images, PDF files, and even Flash movies. You can also output easily any text, such as XHTML and any other XML file. PHP can autogenerate these files, and save them in the file system, instead of printing it out, forming a server-side cache for your dynamic content.
The canonical PHP interpreter, powered by the Zend Engine, is free software released under the PHP License. PHP has been widely ported and can be deployed on most web servers on almost every operating system and platform, free of charge.
Despite its popularity, no written specification or standard existed for the PHP language until 2014, leaving the canonical PHP interpreter as a de facto standard. Since 2014, there is ongoing work on creating a formal PHP specification.

Drupal Website Development Services
Drupal is an open source “out of the box” content management platform as well as customizable, or CMS, powering millions of websites and applications. It’s built, used and supported by an active and diverse community of people around the world.
Drupal is a very popular platform for web content management among global enterprises, governments, higher education institutions, and NGOs. Flexible and highly scalable, Drupal publishes a single web site or shares content in multiple languages across many devices. Technology and business leaders transform content management into powerful digital solutions with Drupal … backed by one of the world’s most innovative open source communities.
Use Drupal to build everything from personal blogs to enterprise applications. Thousands of add-on modules and designs let you build any site you can imagine.
Drupal’s scalability means it can manage large and high-traffic sites. Sites that experience daily high traffic and sites that see periodic spikes in traffic are great candidates to use Drupal to ensure scalability as traffic and content grows.
We can also integrate Drupal with other marketing technologies to create diverse, engaging experiences that use multiple web technologies together, like marketing automation, CRM and more. Using Drupal’s API layer or integration modules to gain additional functionality, content, and data from third party tools.
We can architect and configure Drupal to deliver sites to a global, multilingual audience as part of your localization strategy. Drupal makes it easy for us to create and manage sites for different regions and geographies, and support one to many languages across all of your sites, translating and localizing your content and experiences.

Drupal doesn’t dictate to your business; your business dictates what it needs from Drupal. Many CMS platforms impose their will on your business, forcing you to conform to their way of doing things. Drupal acts the opposite way: we can create a solution that supports your specific business needs. Drupal creates a foundation for limitless solutions.

Whether you need help with a Joomla! project, have an emergency requiring attention now, require Joomla! development services, or just need someone to peer over your shoulder, our Joomla! consultants are ready to take immediate action to assist you!
Web Sites and Powerful Web Applications
Joomla! is often thought of as the compromise between WordPress and Drupal. Joomla! is another award-winning content management system (CMS) to build Web sites and powerful online web applications because of its ease-of-use and extensibility.
Joomla! is part of the open source community and their source code is freely accessible and can be modified under their license.
Ah, The Love/Hate…
Joomla! support services for those customers currently using Joomla! as their web CMS eXperiencing issues, we lean more towards directing them to WordPress and Drupal if “the juice is not worth the squeeze” to repair their current Joomla! implementation.
In Our Opinion, Joomla Might be Dying!
Between Drupal and WordPress – WordPress being our favorite for most common web sites, most bases are covered with regards to security, longevity, scalability, and features. This means that before even considering the drawbacks of Joomla!, there really is no necessity for it in the market any longer.
Many plugins for Joomla! must be paid for and are no longer supported, potentially due to the low user base. This generally causes the community to not favor the use of such modules, which has also depreciated in the past few years and led to many migrations to either Drupal or WordPress. This results in a smaller Joomla! community, which is infrequently ideal for an open source platform.
Joomla! is also generally less secure than WordPress and Drupal, and the way upgrades are handled from one major release to the next can be very frustrating. Major version releases are really forks to the last version and require more of a migration than an upgrade. Moreover, the site theme and extensions used on the previous version are often incompatible with the new version, which means you have to invest much more time and money when performing what should be a simple upgrade.
But It Ain’t All that Bad…
Joomla! still remains a powerful content management system, which can run smoothly on most web servers without any problems. It doesn’t require the same level of technical experience as Drupal, and it still offers many extra features. Like Drupal and WordPress, Joomla! has a lot of plug-ins and themes available to choose from. So we can customize your site to look and function in any way you desire. Other reasons to choose Joomla include:
- Social Networking – This is one of the biggest benefit of Joomla. Joomla makes it the easiest to create social networks. Social networks can be a powerful asset for many sites, and with Joomla, you can have one up and running extremely quickly and easily, especially with our help.
- Commerce Sites – If you want us to set up an online e-commerce store; this is also very simple with Joomla. While it is certainly possible with Drupal and WordPress, Joomla can make it a “tad” faster and easier, and offers more native support for these types of things.
- Not too Technical – Joomla has, in many people’s opinion, found that middle ground between the ease of managing a WordPress website, and the power of a Drupal site. Most common folk should be able to run a Joomla site without any significant technical support (cough-cough), though there may be some issues which you’ll need our help on.
- Help Portal – Joomla offers a great help portal for asking questions and getting technical support. It isn’t going to be as fast or extensive as the community based support pages of WordPress, but it is quicker (and cheaper) than technical support most people get for Drupal.
- Free – Like Drupal, Joomla is free to use on your own web servers, but there is no option to have it hosted for free like WordPress offers.
Many users love Joomla! because it is powerful, yet easy to use. Joomla! has done an excellent job at combining the benefits of WordPress and Drupal, and adding in some great features of its own. Joomla seems to have found a big market of people who are ready for something a little more powerful than WordPress, but easier to manage than Drupal.
CodeIgniter (CI) is a powerful PHP framework with a very small footprint
CodeIgniter gives web developers a simple and elegant toolkit to create full-featured web applications. CodeIgniter is not trying to be all things to all people. It is a lean MVC (model-view-controller) framework, with enough capabilities to improve a developer’s productivity, while providing for third-party addons/plugins for additional functionality.
CodeIgniter 3 requires PHP version 5.2.4 or later, and plays nicely with almost all shared or dedicated hosting platforms. Many web apps need a database, and CodeIgniter supports the most common options, including MySQL.
CodeIgniter’s MVC framework helps developers keep their code organized and modular and delivers a real enhancement to the overall efficiency of web development and web application maintenance. CodeIgniter can also be expanded to operate in a modular (HMVC) fashion allowing developers to write modules for one application and use them again in another. This means the code is reusable, which helps reduce development time and expense for our customers.
CI allows us to develop complex web applications with a robust set of tools – Calendar, e-mail, zip encoding, form validation, file uploads, sessions, unit testing… just a few of the built in libraries that come with CI. It also includes a boat load of default helpers for common things like forms, file handling, arrays, strings, cookies, directories, and more. And as if that wasn’t enough, we can create our own libraries and helpers or use code that has been developed by the CI community and posted to the wiki.
CodeIgniter is a community-developed open source project, with several venues for community members to gather and exchange ideas.

CodeIgniter Web Consulting Geek Factors
One of the hardest things with frameworks is the installation process. We tend to look for tools that can be installed and used by just uploading files to a directory. CI fits that bill nicely. No need for PEAR packages or server modifications to get the framework up and running. Just upload the files to the server, create a database, update a couple of configuration files, and we are off and running in minutes.
CI allows us to implement as much or as little security as needed for your web app. It does some things by default like unsetting global variables regardless of PHP’s register_globals directive, and turning off the magic_quotes_runtime directive during system initialization so it is not necessary to remove slashes when retrieving data from a database. Other settings can also be enabled easily such as cookie encryption, handling session data with a database, and automatically escaping SQL queries.
CI can handle connections to multiple databases within one application and connect to any of the following database types: MySQL (4.1+), MySQLi, MS SQL, Postgre, Oracle, SQLite, or ODBC. CI also facilitates the manipulation of your database; add/remove columns from tables, create new tables and remove old ones using its database forge library.
To sum up, CI is a powerful rapid web application development framework that not only helps us get your web solution off the ground faster (= less time and expense), but also provides a consistent structure for multiple developers to work on the same web application project with one set of consistent coding standards, libraries, and helpers.
