I take it the extra P is for PostgreSQL? As far as I could ever tell, the only advantage MySQL ever had over PostgreSQL 10 years ago is that it ran on Windows, and Postgres did not, back then. Oh, and by skipping ACID features, MySQL was faster.
So, back in the day, that drove me to conclude that all the MySQL fans were crazy, and I decided to use Postgres at home, since Windows != server, and having done quite enough XBase once upon a time, DB integrity had some value to me.
LAPP? Bring it!
Is the final P PHP, or Perl (which would be my preference)? Maybe make it an R for Ruby? :-)

- steveklabnik 16y agoMost Rubyists (I have no numbers for this, just a general sense of the community, I could be totally wrong, all generalizations are false, etc) use Nginx nowadays, so it'd be more like LNPR.
- SkyMarshal 16y agoMost Rubyists also seem to be squarely in the NoSQL camp too, so try LNNR.
