Implement an e-commerce site? ASP, ASP.net, J2EE, PERL, PHP.

[cool bhavin]

i am looking to create ecommerce site and there is lots of f technologies available and their highly volatile it is very difficult to determine which of the technologies would be most appropriate to create an ecommerce site.
please can any one guide me to choose better one.
thank you

Traditionally the choice is based on 6 key criteria (this list is not exhaustive):

1. Performance and scalability (anglicism which means the ability to adapt an application to handle an increasing workload without degradation of quality of service).
2. The cost (labor, development tools, licenses ...).
3. The ease of implementation and maintenance (corrective and evolutionary).
4. Interoperability (ability of an application to communicate with other external applications, even if they are not implemented with the same technology).
5. Portability (ability of an application to run on multiple platforms without the need to make major changes to its source code. Principle of write once run everywhere).
6. The dynamism and professionalism of the community supporting each technology.

Among all the technologies listed above is that J2EE provides the best level of performance and scalability. We reached this conclusion after comparing the different technologies mentioned above using a common benchmark. For e-commerce applications we recommend the use of benchmark TPC-W as a standard of comparison. You can read more about this in this article.

For their part, PERL technologies are not recommended because in a web application, the interpreter is created in as many forums as there are requests. This rapidly depletes the server and is not suitable to the needs of dynamic web applications where data and treatments are used intensively and competitive. You can also get an excellent level of performance and scalability by combining ASP.net with SQL Server but as we shall see later there are other arguments that could lead to a developer not to opt for. Net.

Unlike ASP, ASP.net is a technology that provides a compiled higher level of performance. More in the platform. Net code ASP.net pages with a real programming language and not just a scripting language (JScript, Vbsript) as in ASP.

the cost of an application called total cost of ownership (or Total Cost of Ownership in English) depends on several factors including:

* The cost of labor (designer, programmer, business analyst ...)
* The cost of the necessary software program to design deploy and maintain e-commerce site (integrated development environment or IDE, database manager / database, web server, application server ...).

In a cost-cutting you can always opt for Open Source products and / or free. For example, to develop a J2EE application you can use the following products:

* Eclipse as the integrated development environment (IDE).
* MySQL as RDBMS.
* Tomcat as servlet container.
* JBOSS as application server.

Sub. Net you can use the following tools:

* Visual Studio Express Edition as EDI (free version). You can also make the development. Net with Eclipse if you install the appropriate plug-in.
* SQL Server Express as RDBMS (free RDBMS that does not lend itself to the needs of sites small and medium size).

However development tools unavoidable. NET is Visual Studio.net Enterprise and SQL Server (Yukon) but their costs are expensive beyond the reach of all businesses.

The cost of hosting your ecommerce site is another factor that weighs heavily in the balance especially if you opt for outsourcing. Indeed accommodation and commercial J2EE/Oracle ASP.net / SQL Server is unaffordable even in shared hosting. As against the price of accommodation in PHP is much more advantageous.

Regarding the cost of labor, cost PHP developers in general cheaper than developers. Net and J2EE.

Personally I find it easier to implement a site with the tools. NET with J2EE and PHP tools. The Visual Studio.net / SQL Server in my opinion are easier to learn and use than NetBeans, JBuilder, Eclipse and MySQL. Also it is much easier to administer and deploy IIS Apache, Tomcat or JBOSS. Note also that the language is Visual Basic.net an incredible intuitive (we recall that under. Net the choice of programming language does not have a large impact on performance because downstream is compiled in Intermediate Language. Sub. Net the choice of language is all about style and taste). using web services, the interoperability problem does not arise with great urgency for applications developed with technologies. Net and J2EE.

[MindSpace]

J2EE is known for its portability to various platforms. The only disadvantage it has compared to. Net is what only supports one programming language (Java). . Net for its part supports a number of programming languages, but its portability is limited to Windows operating system (several groups on the web interested in portability. NET on Linux and other operating systems but their efforts are still at an embryonic stage. On the field I have not seen a company deploy a ASP.net site on Linux).

The PHP community is certainly the most active on the site. Simply see the number of Open Source PHP dedicated to electronic commerce (the best known is OSCommerce) Communities. NET and J2EE are also very active in Open Source (especially Foundation Apache Jakarta), but their contribution to the development of e-commerce applications is rather lean.

[Praetor]

* You must remain in the object-oriented technologies because they are easier to maintain and implement. Development costs are also reduced through the reuse of components (it is important to note that the new version PHP (5) is object-oriented).
* For a site of small and medium-size or cost of ownership is crucial, we recommend opting for PHP / MySQL.
* For sites of a size larger and where the data processing is used intensively it must opt for J2EE/Oracle or ASP.Net / Sql Server if the budget allows.
* For those who seek the technical facility to be used products ready for use as OSCommerce or Microsoft Commerce Server.
