CakePHP vs Tornado: What are the differences?
Developers describe CakePHP as "The Rapid Development Framework for PHP". CakePHP makes building web applications simpler, faster, while requiring less code. A modern PHP 7 framework offering a flexible database access layer and a powerful scaffolding system. On the other hand, Tornado is detailed as "A Python web framework and asynchronous networking library, originally developed at FriendFeed". By using non-blocking network I/O, Tornado can scale to tens of thousands of open connections, making it ideal for long polling, WebSockets, and other applications that require a long-lived connection to each user.
CakePHP and Tornado belong to "Frameworks (Full Stack)" category of the tech stack.
"Open source" is the top reason why over 34 developers like CakePHP, while over 34 developers mention "Open source" as the leading cause for choosing Tornado.
CakePHP and Tornado are both open source tools. It seems that Tornado with 18K GitHub stars and 4.98K forks on GitHub has more adoption than CakePHP with 7.9K GitHub stars and 3.4K GitHub forks.
Swat.io, Walls.io, and Zumba are some of the popular companies that use CakePHP, whereas Tornado is used by Facebook, TravelPerk, and Zalando. CakePHP has a broader approval, being mentioned in 66 company stacks & 29 developers stacks; compared to Tornado, which is listed in 69 company stacks and 16 developer stacks.
Hi all, I need to create a simple IoT interface application that connects the end device API with a GeoTab API. I am considering using Bubble due to its simple interface and configuration tools, but I fear it's too simple. We will want to add features and new devices as we grow - I was thinking of using CodeIgniter or CakePHP on a hosted site for the application. Must support JCOM encoding between the two APIs and there is no need for a separate interface as GeoTab already has one; we are just connecting and pushing data. Thoughts?

Hi, Which tool will you recommend:
I need to build a web application, oriented to small businesses, like a small ERP. It will have intensive use of Sql to access a PostgreSQL database. It has to be secure, as it will handle information on customers, sales, inventory.
If you think another tool will be better, please let that know.
Thanks a lot
Laravel and Postgres will be the better solutions you can add more like Redis for caching and React/Vue for the frontend.
Check Spring, if security and reliability is needed along with Lots of Database , check Spring Data, spring web, spring security
Laravel works well in this context, you can build a secure and fast ERP using it with postgresql and all Laravel environment like caching, queues, jobs. And for frontend if you need productiviness I would go with Livewire to help
