There's a new article over on InfoWorld talking about the efforts of Zend and Sun to try to bring PHP to Sun's (Java) web server.

In this new piece, there's a note: On Monday it (Zend) released two products that integrate with Version 6.1 of Sun's Java System Web Server, allowing companies to deploy PHP on Sun's software. (The Java System Web Server was known previously as the Sun ONE Web Server.)

If the transition of this to the Java web server is successful, that opens the door even wider for PHP, letting it get a foothold in all of the currently existing Sun servers. Their target is financial services and insurance companies, airlines and media Web sites, as well as government customers.

This could be the start of something wonderful for our favorite little scripting language...
