Web Host Concentric Supports PHP V5

August 30, 2006 — (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Web hosting provider Concentric Hosting (concentric.com) announced on Wednesday that it had introduced support for the latest version of the PHP scripting language.

A subsidiary of XO Communications (xo.com), concentric says the support for PHP version 5 is part of its effort to provide customers with the best Web hosting tools. PHP 5 now runs on the company’s Concentric Clustered Hosting Platform, which provides load balanced clustered infrastructure designed to optimize performance of Web applications.

PHP is a scripting language used widely, including by many Concentric customers, to create dynamic Web pages. The new version includes support for SQLite, XML integration and improvements to its object-oriented programming style.

“PHP is popular with the developers that use our service and we want to ensure our development community has the most up to date versions of tools it needs,” says Barbara Branaman, vice president and general manager of XO’s hosting business unit.

Concentric will continue to support PHP versions 3 and 4, along with other scripting languages.

Last week, the company announced that it had begun offering ASP.NET 2.0 support with all Concentric hosting plans.
