Re: Why use PHP? What are the disadvantages?

When you mention the "no sql" movement are you talking about some of the OO
databases that are coming out?  I hadn't thought of that as being a move
toward integrated (because OO is over hyped as it concerns business logic
coding), but that is what they are going for.  Interesting.

At one point PHP had an integrated database.  Not sure if it was any good,
but I don't think anyone used it so it was removed.  Fact is distributed

this debate exists.

With the "No-SQL" movement and frameworks, I tend to wonder if we aren't
heading back towards integrated databases. To me it seems it is only a
matter of time before someone comes out with the new, modern, open-source
language that puts everything together and claims it is revolutionary.
Sure was...back in 1987.
