Sorry, I cannot comment on cake as I have not used it. I do know that WebORB is fast, reliable and community support is very good. I find it very easy to code for (Although I could be biased as I have used it for a long time).
I would be reluctant to use CakeAMFPHP as I don't know the level of support I could get from the community. There are a lot of WebORB users here on FlexCoders so any questions you will have will likely get a response. I have never seen a query related to CakeAMFPHP on FlexCoders. Also, with WebORB, if you ever need enterprise support, you have the option of paying for it. --- In [email protected], "raja_s_patil" <kpr.rspa...@...> wrote: > > Hello, > > With reference to our topic few days ago and responses > there on we are converging on PHP as server side technology. > Within that we shortlisted two options > > 1> CakePHP + CakeAMFPHP - Adapter classes to make AMFPHP work > seamlessly with CakePHP.
