LAMP Stack Performance Tuning

PerfBytes

Hey, who turned out the lights? Turn on a LAMP - that's the popular semi-standard configuration of Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP which is employed across thousands of websites out there in the wilds of internet reality. Even major vendors like IBM and HP are behind the support for this nearly-enterprise-ready stack. Well, it would be totally enterprise ready if you can get it to scale and perform reliably enough to operate mission-critical applications. Join James and I for a sharing of our experiences tuning up LAMPs and illuminating the practices you'll need to succeed. Not that performance tuning wasn't already hard enough to do without proper lighting. Originally posted on Tuesday, February 19th, 2013.
