LAMP is an acronym for a set (complex) of server software that is widely used on the World Wide Web . LAMP is named after the first letters of its constituent components:
- L inux - Linux operating system ;
- A pache - web server ;
- M ariaDB / M ySQL - DBMS ;
- P HP is a programming language used to create web applications (besides PHP, other languages such as Perl and Python may be implied).
The acronym LAMP can be used to mean:
- Web server infrastructure
- Programming paradigms ;
- Software package.
Although initially these software products were not developed specifically for working with each other, such a bundle has become very popular because of its flexibility, performance and low cost (all its components are open source and can be downloaded free of charge from the Internet ). The LAMP suite is part of most Linux distributions and is provided by many hosting companies .

For Windows
Since the programs included in LAMP were mainly developed for Linux , installing and mutually configuring them under Windows takes some time. To solve this problem, many software packages were created that allow you to start working immediately after installation, this set is called WAMP . Examples of popular packages: Open Server , Denwer , XAMPP .
