IMHO agreed. I believe that there is a perceived convergence of "needs"
between (call it...) more-mobile personal linux and _virtualised_ server
linux.
If we can create a linux VM in under 5 minutes, "we" expect that it will
boot-up
without the sys admin's intervention. Then "we" expect that we can migrate
it
to newer hardware without manual reconfiguration.

But returning to PHP: If apps are developed without real separation between
user interface and back-end, then the back-end will be victimised by the
relative and inherent instability of the front-end. The web servers then
really
become part of the front-end and must be handled as such. I would argue that
this lack of separation between front-end and web server is a feature of
the WWW
and its protocols, we cannot escape it. So no surprise that most data
centers
leave the web servers outside or mostly-outside the network perimeter.
