What Is LAMP
LAMP is an archetypal model of a set of web services, named as an abbreviation of the names of its original four open components: the Linux operating system, the Apache HTTP server, the MySQL relational database management system (RDBMS), and the PHP programming language.
LAMP is the most common environment for popular PHP applications such as WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Magento, Laravel, and many others.
