Guide to Database Applications in Financial Services: Adoption of LAMP Stack Improves Performance and Lowers TCO for Web and Data Warehouse Applications

Overview Financial services companies have taken the lead in adopting a more comprehensive open source middleware stack known as LAMP - Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP/Perl/Python. Because the price of software increases as one moves up the stack from operating system to middleware to databases, the cost savings of adopting an open source software stack are even more dramatic than with just the operating system alone. The paper will illustrate how MySQL can help lower financial services organizations' Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) in deploying an open software stack while allowing them to expand existing businesses, develop new products, and comply with an ever-growing number of regulatory and statutory requirements.
