We've written a fairly large app based on PHP without really realizing the need for a true web app server - meaning a third dedicated app server placed behind the firewall for security reasons. Has anyone ever done this or even better, could someone point me to documentation on this?
I've looked, but admittedly I'm new to PHP only having worked with other app servers and Java, I'm finding that 3-tier in php speak isn't really 3-tier, but 4-tier(?). The web browser isn't a tier in my mind, but each tier has to run on a separate machine.
thanks in advance,
matt
