Cakephp Framework

CakePHP is based on the MVC Architecture. It refers to Model View Controller Architecture. MVC is divided into three basic parts: Model, View and Controller. Model is the data that has to be accessed using certain set of rules. It responds to the input states and queries. View can be understood as output stage that enables further modification of the Model. The Controller invokes changes in the Model as a result of input processes. Cakephp Developers extensively use this application framework to build robust web applications.

Some notable Cakephp features

• Website directory independent
• Access control lists (ACL)
• Compatible with PHP4 and PHP5
• Integrated CRUD for database and simplified querying
• Request dispatcher with custom URLs
• Templating (PHP syntax with helper methods)
• View helpers for AJAX, JavaScript, HTML forms
• Application scaffolding
• Data sensitization
• Security, session, and request handling components
• View caching
• Unit testing using the Simple Test framework
• Built-in validation

With the help of Cakephp, the development costs are substantially lower. It also helps devlopers in writing less codes. Websites built with Cakephp have a stunning look and are also SEO friendly.

Zend Framework

Brainchild of Zend Technologies, Zend is a well known and open source object oriented web-application framework powered by PHP 5. The main objective behind ZF is making things easier for PHP developers and supporting best practices at the same time. The Zend framework has easy methods of licensing with the new BSD license and a swift and well-tested code base that your business can rely upon. It makes use of commonly available APIs from well known vendors like Google, Amazon, Yahoo!, Flickr and API providers and catalogers such as StrikeIron and Programmable Web. It also has a brilliant component library which provides 80 percent of the functionality mostly needed by developers. The rest can be customized to suit your requirements.

On the other hand, zend is for those who want a better control over the application design and built-in support for renowned web services. The future looks promising for these frameworks.
