Most of my work in the past few years has been migrating .NET projects to PHP for enterprise clients. Especially with PHP 7, the performance is good, it's easier to hire for, and the total cost of ownership is lower. The doomsayers predicting poor security are wrong - it is just as possible to build a secure PHP system as a secure .NET system, and just as easy to build an insecure one.
Of course, it depends on the project and the company, so this isn't a universal truth. But there are definitely a lot of companies out there spending a fortune on a .NET stack that are looking to move to a PHP open source stack for good reasons.
- lupin_sansei 10y agoNot sure that's true. Out of the box ASP.NET has request validation enabled by default that screens out lots of opportunities for XSS https://www.owasp.org/index.php/ASP.NET_Request_Validation https://www.owasp.org/index.php/ASP.NET_Request_Validation PHP doesn't have that for example.
- girvo 10y ago> PHP doesn't have that for example. Bare PHP, sure, but pick basically any framework that any modern PHP-based web app is built on and then it does, no?
- emodendroket 10y agoSymfony certainly offers it.
- cutler 10y agoI'm a bit new to .Net but doesn't the shift to .Net Core hosted on Linux and compatible with MySQL/PostgreSQL address all these concerns?
