RIFE with possibilities
Saturday, July 19th, 2008
Deciding what framework or even platform to use can be an excruciating decision and can greatly influence how well your final product works. It also determines how easy it is to maintain or connect up to other systems should you need to either export your systems capabilities or import services/data from them.
For the last four months I have been developing a very interesting Web-based business application, but deciding exactly how to implement the product took many months and a lot of agonising analysis about what platform and framework to use. In the Open Source universe, just like Linux or BSD distributions there is an almost incomprehensible list of options to choose from, and the decision on what to write your application in must almost always come after what to write your application on.
