AZbb :: AZ Bulletin Board
|
|
|
On 18th August, 2003 I finally decided to start producing a forum that would fulfil my own expectations. There were a number of issues which made me embark on the project and the most important one was Security. Next on the list were Speed and server load. My experience as a server administrator along with forum administrator plus my knowledge of internet security issues were instrumental in the way AZbb is coded. AZbb is the work of one person alone. It has taken me nearly one year of fulltime coding 7 days a week and around 3000 hours to produce AZbb. AZbb is coded in PHP using OOP. AZbb is compatible with PHP >= 4.1.0 including the latest PHP5 (recommended). AZbb does not require a database backend although a database interface module could be added with later releases. Since database access is limited and usually involve additional costs, AZbb should be easier and cheaper to set up and have broader appeal. Not using a database however does not hinder the performance or the speed of AZbb in any way. AZbb is FREE for personal and non-profit use.
