Facebook is improving its website by converting PHP, a modern scripting language, to the low-level C++ language.  I’m shouting hallelujahs!

How Big Data Analytics Reveal Your Most Intimate Secrets

Almost a decade ago, I looked for books on how to write C++ web programs and could not find a thing. I had to write my own C++ modules to communicate with web servers and dynamically generate HTML.  Today, my automated BI translation tools are all web-based using C++.  They are super fast, have a simple architecture, and function effectively.

See the Facebook story here.
