Hello ranters,I'm a php developer ... I've been removed out of projects twice now due to the fact that database guys would say "nah we don't think php can handle this ,go learn a new language if you want to be in this team " ,then I thought to myself if I could learn another language. .Net came to my mind because the project is going to be for an Enterprise.
Which programming language do you think is the best for an Enterprise software? Thanks

EDIT: They want it in a web version so we could easily push out API's for other platforms like Android apps.

java

i mean what did you guys expect i'd say lol

PHP is very powerful. Try lumen.
https://lumen.laravel.com

C# is your typical enterprise language. As most companies invest in to Ms services.

Although I do PHP at an enterprise level so some companies at least keep an open mind.

@GodHatesMe thats because you do not know how to use them?

@mikk150
Lumen looks like something written for express in nodejs, but that’s at face value. I hope it’s better but the docs seem a bit limited.

Java, and make sure you use Apache Struts < 2.5.10.1. Works like a charm and ultra-secure (just ask Equifax).

I guess you won't get much out of Java/.net that you can't get with PHP (unless we're talking about F# or Scala here - which we aren't).

"Enterprise" software is usually broken as shit, and by broken I mean it's one of those things you spend weeks examining (at the cost of your ability to enjoy life) and then lock your screen, get your hands on your face as if you were going to cry and start to laugh because hell, it shouldn't work, there's no way such a shitload of convoluted mess can work, but it does.

I propose something sane, like Haskell, or if you're more of an script guy go lispy

C# for Enterprise, make your career easier (and secure).

Well they think wrong.

PHP can handle pretty much everything, but it will just be slower in some situations than alternatives. It has its issues, but to hear that a language can't handle something, unless we're talking about esoteric languages or niche products (mobile apps for ex), I'd have to say that the person saying this is an idiot.

Node js, Express js & Pm2 for backend.
Angular for frontend.

@armeg he asked for best, not worst

@BindView my eyes bleed everytime I read Angular :c
