>From the Greek paradeigma, which means 'model, pattern, example". Broadly speaking LAMP is a specialisation of the three-tier architecture for web services with clients accessing a server consisting of a database and a middle tier that mediates transactions and keeps track of state and business logic. the fact that you can set up a generic service that can talk to a relatively universal client using free software is what gives the combination it's reach. It is the commodity server platform these days. The most crucial part is Apache, you can do all sorts of weird things in terms of adjusting URLs setting up handlers and making up for the deficiencies of other parts of the architecture. There are alternatives for each of the elements mentioned, all of which have their strengths and weaknesses.
