Zend crafts PHP application server
Zend Technologies is turning to application server vendors in the next phase of its work fine-tuning PHP for enterprise development.
Self-appointed PHP Steward Zend has had talks with unnamed middleware partners with a view to improving the performance of its favorite scripting language on their application servers, by putting PHP inside the application server.
The thinking is that the current PHP bridge that's used to instantiate Java objects and that currently connects PHP to the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), might - instead - connect to the Enterprise Java Bean (EJB) container.
A direct connection would boost performance of PHP and Java applications by eliminating the delay that currently exists between the JVM and the EJB container.
