LAMP is an acronym for a common software stack consisting of Linux, Apache HTTP Server, MySQL database, and PHP, Perl, or Python programming languages. It refers to a model where these open-source components work together and can be interchanged. LAMP stacks are included in most Linux distributions and are widely used to develop e-commerce, learning, software-as-a-service, and social media applications.

LAMP 

(Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP/Perl/Python) is an acronym denoting one of the most


common software stacks for many of the web's most popular applications. However, LAMP now
refers to a generic software stack model and its components are largely interchangeable.[1]
Each letter in the acronym stands for one of its four open-source building blocks:

 Linux for the operating system


 Apache HTTP Server
 MySQL for the relational database management system
 PHP, Perl, or Python programming language
The components of the LAMP stack are present in the software repositories of most Linux
distributions.[2]Now e-commerce, e-learning, SAAS, real estate, infotainment, and social media
applications are developed using LAMP stack development processes.

History[edit]
The acronym LAMP was coined by Michael Kunze in the December 1998 issue of Computertechnik,
a German computing magazine, as he demonstrated that a bundle of free and open-source
software "could be a feasible alternative to expensive commercial packages". Since then, O'Reilly
Media and MySQL teamed up to popularize the acronym and evangelize its use.[3] The term and the
concept became popular because it was one of the first open-source software stacks for the web,
[4]
 with sufficient capabilities to host a variety of web frameworks, such
as Joomla, WordPress and Drupal.[citation needed]
