A comparison between JAVA and PHP

Published: 10 July 2013 Publication History

Abstract

Java and PHP are two of the most popular languages for web-oriented application. With different architectures and following different programming paradigms, they both fulfill the common needs for web-applications design. However, the differences between these languages may also have a measurable impact in several key aspects of the resulting applications, including performance and security. This study compares Java and PHP for web-application according to performance and security. Our results suggest that Java is more scalable and secure than PHP.
