Salestrakr looks great and performs even better. And thus we expect lots of new customers in the coming months. People keep asking us how we will scale? These questions were burning a few years ago. But, with the maturation of open source, and with lower prices of hardware combined with much higher reliability, we no longer have to work so hard to squeeze blood from the stone. We can really "throw hardware" at the problem.
In our case, we utilize LAMP. LAMP stands for Linux, Apache, MySQL PHP. That's really it. OK, we did write our own AJAX framework (and thus utilize Javascript and XML methods and external libraries to do what we need to do.) But LAMP forms our base. Use of this base will keep Salestrakr easy to extend and scale (and use.) Support is easier. Thus, our costs are MUCH lower than they would be using most other technologies and methods on the market.
BTW, is that guy in the T-shirt Brad Pitt?
