I have gone through all the post related
to LAMP...
I feel, I should give more details
regarding nature of automated system required...
So that I can get some specific
pointers...
System
Requirement:
1. It will be mainly a small 3000 to
5000 record database with student details
2. As of now, main application of it is
to generate exam grade reports...
3. And it should be able to give concise
& well formatted reports, which could be printed on ordinary
printers
4. The periodic backup of records,
if it can be integrated in automation system, rather than relying on OS level
backup.
According to me, there are three main
parts of the system,
1) Data Entry of
records
2) Algorithm to generate reports based
on schools grading logic
3) Report Generation &
Printing
My View
* 1st & 3rd part functions should be
extremely user friendly.
* Business logic should
be isolated into module of its own, and tightly secured. (I don't know
how?)
* Report generation will be
multilingual (English, Gujarati), so better printing
support.
Now,
1) If at all LAMP is feasible? If yes,
how can LAMP setup be utilized?
2) Application should
be Desktop based or web based?
