CakePHP started in 2005, when Ruby on Rails was gaining popularity. The community has since grown and spawned several sub-projects. CakePHP is not a port of Ruby on Rails to PHP, but appropriates many of its useful concepts. The Mambo Foundation announced in 2007 that it would utilize the CakePHP framework for future versions of its widely used content management system, calling CakePHP a "solid choice and certainly one of the top frameworks available today." Features of CakePHP Like Rails, CakePHP makes it easier for the user to interface with the database with active records. It also encourages use of the model-view-controller architectural pattern. * 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 * Website directory independent * Built-in validation * Access control lists (ACL) * Application scaffolding * Data sanitization * Security, session, and request handling components * View caching
