Hi everybody,
I am going to start a new company in a little while. The company will
be founded when the first project will be in the alpha version. Several
other projects will be done in future. My problem is determing what
platform I should use.
I know how to program in several languages but ignore this for the
moment.
I am going to start a big project like blogger.com, flickr.com,
cragilists or something like that. The fact that the project will be
(hopefully) popular implies security issues and application
stress/scaling issues as well.
For these reasons, I need to be very careful on the choise of the web
development platform. I have 3 candidates:
- PHP
- Ruby on Rails
- ASP.NET
My aim is SPEED OF DEVELOPMENT, LOW TIME TO LEARN THE TECHNOLOGY and
APPLICATION STRENGHT (to security and to scalability issues).
Could you tell me what do you think of these 3 technologies for my
needs. I am tempted by Ruby, but lots of people says it is not mature
enough. Php, they say is not so secure and robust. ASP.NET I need 2
years of study and 4000 pages, for doing an hello world (ok I am
overestimating :-)).
Can you help me? Tell me your comments?
Thanks in advance,
Mike
PS: THANK-YOU, it is very important for my future the choise of
platform for my company.
