IS THERE ANY SCOPE OF PHP? I M TRAINEE.STILL I M CONFUSED WHETHER I SHOULD GO FOR PHP TECHNOLOGIES OR .NET

Hi, Considerations for selecting right Framework- 1] Platform Compatibility: PHP is available on all major platforms while .NET is only compatible with Windows. But it is believed that Microsoft is working behind making it available on Linux. 2] Portability: .NET framework can be used for office as well as web applications while PHP only works on the web. But it is possible to insert and run JAVA code within PHP; however this requires installation of Java JRE on the webserver. 3] Hosting Cost: PHP Hosting fee under Linux is less costly compared to that of Windows hosting. Also, for using MS SQL Server under Windows hosting some additional fees is needed to be paid while Linux hosting includes MySQL database usage standard. 4] Database Compatibility: Dot NET usually works with MS Access or MS SQL Server and PHP framework works best with MySQL database. 5] General Performance: Compared to .NET, PHP framework has a very stable and fast database connectivity which improves the overall generic performance of the PHP based application. 6] Security: Dot NET framework is integrated with an effective security mechanism which saves a lot of programming. 7] Web Services: For building useful web services, Dot NET has best features available. The process of building a web service is very simple in .NET compared to other frameworks present in the market. 8] Language Support: Dot NET supports number of development languages like C#, C+, JAVA, and others. PHP on the other hand supports only PHP language itself and JAVA. Considering the above discussed points about both the frameworks and the individual requirements, you can now decide which one to pick. Since both offers lucrative career options. Found this useful?
