Snatch Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Hello! I'm writting a dissertation on PHP I was just wondering if anyone knew of any large companies that use PHP web sites? Preferrably e-commerce sites. Thanks for any input! Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/82720-well-known-web-sites/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Yahoo, Digg and Facebook do for instance. They're pretty large. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/82720-well-known-web-sites/#findComment-420712 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snatch Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 Thanks Daniel, i'm aware of Facebook but didn't realise Yahoo and Digg use PHP. Does anyone know of any large e-commerce sites using PHP though? For example an amazon type site.

Snatch Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 Does anyone think ebuyer could be developed in PHP? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/82720-well-known-web-sites/#findComment-420803 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Seeing as http://www.ebuyer.com/index.php works and other extensions such as .asp, .html, .py, .pl etc. don't, I'd say yes, Ebuyer is created using PHP as well.

phpSensei Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Google. Google doesn't use PHP. How do you know? Have you seen the actual GOOGLE coding? I put GOOGLe, so he would search some there.

neylitalo Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Google. Google doesn't use PHP. How do you know? Have you seen the actual GOOGLE coding? I put GOOGLe, so he would search some there. I would be very, very surprised if Google used PHP. PHP isn't efficient enough to handle Google's needs - it's more likely a far more efficient language like python, perl, or even a compiled language.

Daniel0 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Google. Google doesn't use PHP. How do you know? Have you seen the actual GOOGLE coding? No, but some of their pages end on .py. And as neylitalo said, I quite sure they use some compiled programs behind the scene.

tibberous Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I thought google was written in C++. Like, google is the server software and the site. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/82720-well-known-web-sites/#findComment-421163 Share on other sites More sharing options...
