Most "large" companies prefer WISA over LAMP? Why? [closed]

Question

If this is true, I'd like to know why. Do we see a great percentage of secure and high traffic web applications built in LAMP?

Answer 1

It's all about support. A large company buying from Microsoft will get a hotline through to their support team. Because any downtime could be incredibly expensive to a large company, the ability to get immediate support at any time is more valuable than any savings made on the initial purchase.

Also, if it all goes wrong, there's someone there to blame and potentially sue ;)
