Our team can help your business with the development of new applications, web-sites or even the implementation programmes. Key Open Source technologies for application and web development tend to revolve around one or more of the following products:

• GNU/Linux – A complete operating system which can be custom-assembled for use as a server, desktop, embedded or kiosk type platform.
• Apache – The World's most widely used http[web] server.
• MySQL – The World's most widely deployed SQL database engine.
• PHP – A highly advanced and developed server-side scripting language and pre-processor.
• Java – Recently re-licensed by Sun as fully Open Source under the GPL - the Java language and it's associated components can be used to develop multi-tier, network and/or standalone applications.

One of the major benefits of technologies such as these is platform portability. Applications developed using these tools can be accessed or run on almost any common computer hardware, PCs, Mainframes, Kiosks or even hand-held devices.
