PHP guys are very smart about not trying to reinvent the wheel. They always supported the most common web setup: Apache running on its standard configuration. That's why every shared host company in the world is confident in deploying PHP and avoids like the plague more complex solutions based on Python, Java, and Rubi.
- pizzeys 11y agoI'd say it's actually the opposite - the users are comfortable with PHP and not the more complex solutions. I'd love for us to support other stuff, but anyone who is using anything else wants more control over their environment than the average shared host can offer. We have as many deployment issues etc. with PHP as we would anything else... possibly more. That said, isn't 'IaaS' like Heroku basically 'shared hosting for other stuff'?
