    I Have No Idea What LAMP Means

    The acronym LAMP refers to a solution stack of software, usually free and open source software, used to run dynamic websites or servers. The original expansion is as follows: Linux (the operating system); Apache (the Web server); MySQL (the database management system); PHP and others (the programming languages). The combination of these technologies is used primarily to define a web server infrastructure, define programming of developing software, and establish a software distribution package. Though the these open source programs were not designed to work together, the combination has become popular because of its low acquisition cost. When used in combination they represent a solution stack of technologies that support application servers.
