In many cases, the end of the year gives you time to step back and take stock of the last 12 months.

Are the "Three P's" Losing Favor?
Survey Shows Drops of Perl, Python, PHP Popularity in EMEA

Aug. 4, 2005 09:15 PM

Researchers at Evans Data Corporation have found double digit drop-offs in the number of developers in the EMEA region using PHP, Perl and Python for development, according to a survey of 400 developers in the region.

The number of developers using PHP for development dropped by more than 25% in the last year and the number of developers indicating they would not evaluate or use PHP for future development projects grew by almost 40% in the same time period. Perl usage in EMEA has dropped by more than 20% and those developers with no intentions to evaluate or use Perl grew by 20%. Python usage also saw a 25% reduction in current usage and developers without any intention to use or evaluate Python grew by 17% in the last year, according to survey results.

“This decline is more exaggerated in EMEA and APAC than in North America,” said John Andrews, Evans Data’s Chief Operating Officer. “One of the key factors to this loss of developer mindshare has been the inability of these languages to penetrate the enterprise space.”

Are the "Three P's" Losing Favor? See 3P, oh, and wonder whether these critical components of open-source application development are going to take over significant chunks of the world. Now a survey of 400 developers in the EMEA region shows the P's losing popularity.
