LAMP refers to a number of software packages collectively known as a solution stack.

The software is ideally suited to developers and servers.

LAMP consists of the following.
LINUX The operating System
APACHE The web server.
MySQL Database management.
PHP Programming language.

LINUX can be run on various processors and has recently found its way into the mobile platform. Linux dose not necessarily need to be installed it can be configured to boot from ROM or can be embedded direct onto a device.

Linux is not generally available to download singularly it is generally distributed as a package.

There is no easy solution to determining which application suits you the best but hear are a few of the most popular variations for you to explore.

Once you have Linux installed you will need a web server.
If your Linux package did not already come with one installed then Apache is your best choice.
