Quercus: PHP's jRuby

Posted by acts_as_flinn Sat, 11 Aug 2007 03:08:00 GMT

Again I’m investigating interesting things for the new job I start next week. I just came across Quercus which appears to be a complete implementation of PHP5 in Java. It even includes the ability to import Java classes into PHP. It also provides bytecode caching ala APC for a nice 3-5x speed improvement over plain old mod_php. This is akin to Ruby’s jRuby which provides just about the same feature set. The code looks like it already offers good compatibility but needs more attention…any Sun executives reading? ;-)
