RPG vs PHP for IBM i Web Application Development - Which should you use?

Most application development on the IBM i is now targeted toward a web or mobile interface. The development of the interface is challenging enough but there is also a requirement to develop the server side. When heading down this road, two of the main languages available to developers are RPG and PHP.

In this webcast, Paul Tuohy, a prominent consultant/trainer/educator for application modernization on the IBM i, will discuss:

  • Common requirements, regardless of the language choice
  • What RPG and PHP have to offer
  • The advantages and disadvantages of each
  • How to decide which to use, or whether you should be using both

In the second half of this webcast, BCD's Product Manager, Marcel Sarrasin, will show you how to rapidly develop RPG and PHP web applications using WebSmart. Even if you have no prior web development experience, you’ll be able to create database-driven web applications on day one.
