The fast-paced world of web development requires selecting tools that balance efficiency and scalability. The choice of a suitable database management system plays a pivotal role. SQLite, a lightweight yet powerful database engine, often remains overlooked. When integrated with Laravel, a popular PHP web application framework, SQLite offers developers a reliable solution for building efficient applications.
PHP is a scripting language widely used for web development, with code processed on a web server through a PHP interpreter, implemented as a module, daemon, or CGI executable. Nginx lacks the default ability to handle dynamic web pages with PHP and requires specific additional plugins for this purpose. One such plugin is FPM (FastCGI Process Manager), an alternative PHP FastCGI implementation offering additional features, particularly advantageous for high-traffic sites. FPM stands out as the preferred method for PHP page processing with Nginx, surpassing traditional CGI-based methods in terms of speed.
Collecting and analyzing data on users' geographical locations has become increasingly essential for various applications.
