Apache HTTP Server:
The binary code is resulting from the compilation of the standard Apache source files available from http://www.apache.org.
Installation of the Apache server is optional. The PHP server provided with iAMP Server can also be connected to the IBM HTTP server.
The standard Apache HTTP server here installed accepts standard Apache loadable modules, such as the PHP module provided with iAMP Server.
iAMP server provides an Apache server with all the latest security updates. It behaves like any standard Apache server on Unix or Linux platform.
MySQL database server:
Many open source PHP applications are using MySQL to store and manage their data.
iAMP Server includes a compilation of the standard sources available from http://www.mysql.com.
Installation of MySQL database server is optional.
PHP server:
This package includes PHP software, freely available from http://www.php.net/software/.
Standard source code of PHP, available from http://www.php.net , was compiled for the IBM i.
PHP can be used in various ways:
- As an Apache module, loaded by an instance of the Apache server provided by iAMP Server.
- As a "Fast CGI" extension of the IBM HTTP server.
- As a regular CGI program, called from any HTTP server on the IBM i.
- With a standard "QSH" shell command call.
iAMP Server includes most of the common PHP extensions, including databases access, optimizers, code caching and debug.
Software developers will be able to develop and load their own extensions.
