While I don't ordinarily disagree with Paul, in this case I would agree with Kevin, the language has very little to do with scaleability. The server (both hardware and software ) has everything to with it. I'll put up a smaller IBM i/Zend Server against a larger Java server on any hardware most anytime and get equal or better results. Furthermore the Zend server is much easier to manage. Advanced configuration is about the same difficulty on both WebSphere and Zend servers so a toss up there.

Subject: [WEB400] Which scales better? J2EE, PHP, or CGIDEV2?

Quoted from Get Thee to the Web, Part 3 by Paul Tuohy:

"Scalability relates to how many people will be accessing your
application at
the same time, and how well your application can handle the workload
without
detrimental response times. Usually, you would use Java for high usage,
PHP for
medium, and CGIDEV2 for below medium."

What makes people THINK that J2EE scales better than PHP, and PHP scales
better
than CGIDEV2? Is that thinking correct?
