Ruminations on the System i Market
The winner of the first annual Zend/IBM PHP Innovation Award is API Group, Inc., which utilizes PHP to web-enable its entire ERP system. Headquartered in St. Paul, Minnesota, API Group is a family of companies that provides services in specialty construction, distribution, fabrication manufacturing, and fire protection and systems. API’s goal is to continue to expand within the specialized construction and construction-related industries (it already has more than 26 companies). The API Group uses PHP as a basis for the integration and unification of its growing family of independently owned enterprises.
To select the first Innovation Award winner, Zend and IBM teamed to judge i5/OS users and their production of PHP applications based on complexity, concept, value, and benefit to the PHP community. The award lets Zend and IBM show their continual cooperation as they offer PHP support for the i community. Their partnership gives System i users integrated Zend and IBM software.
