Native PHP on System i
Unless you've been an island cast-away, you've undoubtedly heard that IBM and Zend have partnered up to offer the Zend Core natively on System i, and this means PHP is now a part of the rich e-business development toolkit on the "i". It has been available on Linux for years and there is a wealth of talent out there to exploit it. PHP is open source and works splendidly with the Apache server packaged with System i.
What we'd like you to share is....
What are your plans now that PHP is available?
For example:
1. This could be the breakthrough we needed to burn down the green screens.
2. We could use this to build a nice self service website for our customers.
3. I need more information on what PHP can do for me.
4. I hope to get some technical training in the near future.
5. None. I've got enough on my plate. Long live 5250.
Please feel free to share your thought's.
Thanks, Chris
