Solution stack
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computing, a solution stack is a set of software subsystems or components needed to deliver a fully functional solution, e.g. a product or service.
For example, to develop a web application, the designer needs to use an operating system, web server, database and programming language. One of the many possible solution stacks available is LAMP:
- Linux (the operating system);
- Apache (the Web server);
- MySQL, (the database management system)
- Perl, PHP, and/or Python (scripting languages).
Another common stack is the Windows equivalent of LAMP:
Another example is the OpenACS stack which comprises:
- Linux or Windows (the operating system);
- AOLserver (the Web server);
- PostgreSQL or Oracle (the database management system)
- Tcl (the scripting language).
