WAMP Server
WAMPs are packages of independently created programs installed on computers that
use a Microsoft Windows operating system.
WAMP is an acronym formed from the initials of the operating system Microsoft
Windows and the principal components of the package: Apache, MySQL and one of
PHP, Perl or Python. Apache is a web server. MySQL is an open-source database.
PHP is a scripting language that can manipulate information held in a database
and generate web pages dynamically each time content is requested by a browser.
Other programs may also be included in a package, such as PHPMyAdmin, which
provides a graphical user interface for the MySQL database manager, or the
alternative scripting languages Python or Perl. Equivalent packages are MAMP
(for the Apple Mac) and LAMP (for the Linux operating system).
