Our open-source software on the LAMP platform mean savings for Phoenix software solutions.

If bad web design will hurt you, bad database architecture will kill you. Your people need the right information to do their jobs. You need the right information to make decisions. The software used for data processing has to be fast, bulletproof and it has to be right every time.

dataSpheric specializes in web-enabled software and web database applications for Phoenix and Arizona business. We build software that drives mission-critical systems. From careful scrutiny of data quality, normalization and data mapping, we know how to properly form for your database architecture. We are regularly used as an outsourced back-end development shop for Phoenix businesses and other web developers. We are e-commerce experts. We've built websites that handle millions of visitors. If you need Database Programmers, dataSpheric has your Arizona software solution or database integration.

We've worked with many platforms over the years including Coldfusion, Javascript, Perl/CGI, ASP, Boreland/Delphi but our present focus is the powerful LAMP suite, an acronym for Linux, Apache, MYSQL and PHP. Each of these components is open source which means they are freely available, non-proprietary and standardized. We discuss each below:

Linux is an open source computer operating system. It's kernel is designed to emulate Unix systems on for PC computer architecture. Linux has proven itself in the most demanding workloads and is renown for it's security, stability and affordability.

Apache is a web server that enjoys wide use over multiple platforms. Apache is favored for it's stability, security, ease of administration and broad feature set. Some estimate that Apache is in use in over 75% of commercial web-enabled software applications.

MYSQL is a lean, mean and robust relational database engine that's proven itself under high demand and millions of records. Few know that MYSQL does not in fact support the whole SQL specification, it is built primarily for speed and dependability, crucial qualities for web-enabled software. MYSQL database systems are now in wide deployment at the corporate, enterprise scale, have clustering capability and are interoperable with other SQL systems. This gives us great flexibility with database integration and legacy systems integration.

PHP is a metaware system which means it operates between the database (or other server resources) and the user interface. Using PHP we write the software that produces dynamic web pages and performs the work required. PHP has become one of the most popular programming environments in the world today. It's powerful, robust and allows incredible access to features not found in other software development platforms. PHP is intended for web user interface, especially web or internet-enabled software.

LAMP advantages are universal flexibility, extensibility, portability, security, scalability and stability. They generate huge savings in licensure and in hardware deployment. LAMP systems can be deployed on more modestly built systems than comparable Windows systems and are far easier to administer once up and running. dataSpheric leverages additional power from the Open Source community. We are active participants in several initiatives of open source software including OSCommerce and Sugar CRM in addition to being Mandrake Linux contributors. Open source projects, carefully selected and analyzed, can put the power of thousands of hours of programming and debugging in your hands for free. Our featured open source software set has saved many thousands of dollars for other organizations. We can make it do the same for you.

Not every web designer can handle building web database applications for Phoenix customers that do their job year after year and can grow with your business. dataSpheric can. Contact us today to get started.
