Hello,
I have a question about php frameworks.
In the past I used the codeignitor framework a lot, but the new project that I am gone work on is a lot different from my previews projects.
I am at the start of a new project on which we will develop two applications:
1.PHP server application with a mySQL database
2.Client desktop application written in C++
The only thing the client application does is send (url) requests to the (php) server on which the server replies with text or XML.
So php server application doesn’t really use (browser) views, the only thing it does is manage data from the database and send it back to the client application in text or XML.
When the project is finished, there will be a lot of client applications running at the same time which all connect to the PHP server application, so there will be a lot of traffic and the server needs to be really fast handling the traffic.
I am left with 2 options:
1.Choose a really fast framework (maybe conignitor)
2.Don’t use a framework at all (which I don’t prefer)
I was wondering if there is any PHP framework out there specially designed for backend server applications?
Does anyone know if the codeignitor framework can handle this task?
Any input will be greatly appeared.
Thanks in advance!
