@NogDogJul 14.2005 — #If performance is the most important criteria, I'd probably look at a C# solution with Oracle DB.
If cost is the most important criteria with decent performance, I'd look at a PHP/MySQL solution.
If system complexity is the most important issue, I'd look at either a C++/C# or Java solution, as you are more likely to find top-notch engineers with experience in those languages, plus there are more design and implementation tools available for them.
Best technologies for web applications ???
Hi,
I have been tasked with building a team for creating a fairly complex web-based business application. This application will require logins with users having different privileges, a database, calendars, task management, document storage, some form of e-commerce, security, etc. It also needs to be super fast and user-friendly.
I am an experienced software manager but for projects in C++. Nothing web-based!
After a quick look at the technologies for web-based applications, I see there are many: C# and .NET, PHP and MySQL, Java and J2EE, some open source frameworks (OpenACS, etc.) and probably many more !!! (not to talk about Linux vs Windows)
Which one(s) of those technologies should we contemplate for our application? Pros/Cons? Thanks for all the feeback, it will help me determine the profile of who I need to hire.
