LAMP originated with 'PHP' as the 'P'. It's also by far the most common, for better or worse; 1.4M hits for 'linux apache mysql php' versus 50k for 'linux apache mysql perl' on Google.
- adrianhoward 14y agoLAMP originated with 'PHP' as the 'P' Source for that? I certainly recall it first being used as either "Perl" or "Perl | PHP".

Let the L stand for Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and Darwin/Mac OS X, all of which are open source operating systems and all but the latter have open source GUI layers. Let the M stand for MySQL and PostGreSQL. Let the P stand for PHP, Perl, Python, and Ruby."
- adrianhoward 14y agoAh yes. I've a vague recollection at the lack of Ruby at the time ;)
