Comparative analysis of Web application development on Java and PHP

Abstract

This article presents a comparative analysis of two programming languages used to develop web applications. Two most popular programming languages Java and PHP were compared. The evaluated criteria were: implementation and performance, the time of performing specific operations on 100, 1000 and 10000 records was checked. A code analysis was carried out to determine in which language it is easier to implement an application with identical functionalities. Before the implementation of the application, articles, books and websites on a similar topic were reviewed. In order to test the efficiency, the Postman developer tool was used. The comparison shows that PHP is a more efficient language for developing web applications than Java.
