I'm new to web developing and I want to make a web where the user fill in a few info and then get an answer from the backend. The info filled in is sent to the backend; the backend then process the info and send the answer back for display.
My question is how can I do it with the simplest possible framework? LAMP and GAE both seem ok to me in the long run, but is there any simpler framework good for my needs? I have also looked into LAMP provider like bitnami, however I can't find the application I need in the list of applications. If needed, I can program in Java.
Thanks! and please let me know if I need to clarify my question. I think what I'm asking is general guidance on setting up such a simple web.

Google AppEngine will work fine for your needs. You will need to program it, and Java works on GAE. Start with Java Tutorial and then gradually add your own server side processing. Of course many other web server platforms are possible, but users of GAE generally consider it to be very capable and easy enough to use. LAMP is likely to take you longer to learn.

Inconsistent 503 Service Unavailable using src.sencha.io [closed]

The product I am referring to is src.sencha.io. You pass the path of your image into a src.sench.io url, pass some parameters and your image is resized dynamically. I have been receiving 503's inconsistently.
I have tweeted to Sencha, tried to write on their forums with no avail. I was hoping the community on StackOverflow could shed some light on the service. I am currently using the service in production, so you can imagine the amount of complaints received.
Will this service be maintained in the future and are there any workarounds at the moment? I would prefer not to pull the service entirely. You can imagine my frustration as a developer. I will be sure to never use any Sencha products in the future if this is how they choose to communicate with their developers, free or paid.
Are there any other similar services around that provide image resizing and retina support on the fly. I do not mind paying for the service.
I also use the service and have had this problem. I've written a graceful JavaScript fallback you may be interested in using:
https://github.com/ultrapasty/sencha-src-image-fallback
It falls back to local SRCs if src.sencha.io returns an error on the first request. Feel free to take, use, modify etc.
Thought I'd drop a message on here as it definitely adds value to the post for anyone looking at using ReSRC. If you fancy 50% off the first 3 months on a small or medium plan just enter 'halfprice-small' or 'halfprice-medium on checkout.
Cheers

In addition to my fallback answer which doesn't directly address the question, I haven't used it myself, but keep coming across ReSRC.
Another similar looking one is responsive.io.
This article also has a good write up of many possibilities, under Do I care about relying on third parties?

My team is just starting to learn AngularJs. We have gone through a series of tutorials but we want to see some real world apps to see how things are done in a real working app.
I made some research but was able to find only this project with source code on GitHub.
I will be very grateful if some good people share more apps like this. In my opinion, this is a very good way to get real experience about some new technology.
Goodfil.ms and doubleclick are good examples. If you're looking at hybrid apps take a look at the Sky Sports Cricket score centre with a Cordova type wrapper. Most people won't disclose code of these large projects but Yeoman (yo angular) and seed projects (angular, requirejs, gulp, Browserify) give you a good starting point. You'll also see a lot of examples through the angular documentation to help you get started.

Hi am new to database programming, am in a project where i need to write data to noSql database currently we choosed Cassandra as our DB.
But its not final i need to come up with a framework or library service where any of application request data from DB, this library should serve it.
I choosed to use the "Hector" framework with that i can able to write to cassandra DB, but requirement is if tommorow we change database my library has to work with new database where we just store data as key-value pair.
Please help me to get solution to this problem.
Thanks.
If you decided to go with Hector, it is recommended to use DataStax Java Driver.
It is built from the very beginning to take advantage of Cassandra's new CQL native protocol. I used Hector in the past and it is too much annoying to use and code in.

Maybe a strange and green question, however
Is there anything that Nagios or Ganglia can do that the other can't?
In terms of monitoring, alerts in general.
I'm looking for a general solution for my school's computer club, in my mind its like comparing norton vs advast. both are antivirus however are there any specific benefits that one has over the other? Or am I asking a very stupid question now?
thank you.
Ganglia is aimed at monitoring compute grids, i.e. a bunch of servers working on the same task to achieve a common goal - such as a cluster of web servers.
Nagios is aimed at monitoring anything and everything - servers, services on servers, switches, network bandwidth via SNMP etc etc. Nagios will send alerts based on set criteria (ie, you can set it to send yourself an email or if x service dies).
Note that they are not competing products, they are aimed at different scenarios. By the sounds of it, you need Nagios.
If you have a play around with some online demos, you should be able to get a feel for what product you need (and I think you'll agree with me that Nagios is more suited)

I'm storing a variety of variables containing statistics, items weapons, etc in a flash based game. Currently I'm using PHP and AMFPHP as a backend, calling services to pull the data. This is fine for my own machine, even my own website, however if I want to deploy the game to a site such as Kongregate or ArmorGames, what storage method can I use at that point?
I have a small preference of continuing to use a database such as MySQL because I spent some time designing the ER diagram and schema, but if I have to store in a flat file, I can do that too. I'm especially interested in others who have deployed games which have data storage (such as inventory, characters, classes, items, mobs) external to their game.
Edit: Looking for answers as to whether people use remote services or another solution for deploying their games to sites such as this.
Perhaps you should peruse the documentation of the respective providers:
http://www.kongregate.com/developer_center/docs/shared-content-api
Not sure if armor games has any of that type.
I asked within Kongregate's developers, the answer is yes, I can use remote web services. The API unfortunately had nothing in it dealing with this issue.
You could use our backend Flox http://gamua.com/flox/. It allows you to store your inventories, characters, etc. It's not MySQL but based on a NoSQL database. However, since you'd be using the AS3 SDK, you would not get in touch with the DB anyway.
Also, I should mention that I am the lead developer of Flox, which may make me a bit biased. ;-)
