BitRock Releases LAPPStack 1.0


BitRock LAPPStack 1.0 is an easy to install distribution of Apache, PHP,
PostgreSQL, Python, and supporting libraries. LAPPStack allows users to have
a complete web development environment up and running in just minutes.

San Francisco, CA. August 1, 2006. BitRock Incorporated announced today the
release of LAPPStack, an easy to install distribution of Apache, PostgreSQL,
PHP, Python, and supporting libraries. Its user-friendly installer,
developed with BitRock's InstallBuilder tool, allows users to quickly
install and configure LAPPStack across a wide range of Linux platforms.

LAPPStack 1.0 is licensed under the terms of the Apache License 2.0, and is
free for download and use from www.bitrock.com <http://www.bitrock.com/> .
It allows users to take advantage of the stability, low cost and high
performance of the LAPP web development platform (Linux, Apache, PostgreSQL,
and PHP/Python) without the hassle of integrating, configuring, and
supporting their own build. LAPPStack provides an integrated package that
can be used by both commercial and open source projects for rapid,
consistent deployments in both development and production environments.

BitRock LAPPStack is one of several packaged distributions of open source
applications offered by BitRock. Also available are 2 versions of the LAMP
stack and BitRock MonoStack, an easy to install distribution that integrates
with the Mono Runtime to create a complete Mono development environment. In
the coming weeks, BitRock also will be releasing LAMPStack for Windows and
LAMPStack for Linux 64-bit. Fully-integrated and packaged with BitRock
InstallBuilder, BitRock Stacks ensure ease of download and installation for
the end-user. The Stacks help to encourage adoption of open source software
by making it easier to use and deploy across a range of environments. 

BitRock Stacks highlight the company's expertise in integrating and
packaging software for easy installation and configuration. In addition to
its standard Stacks, BitRock specializes in building and packaging
customized distributions of open source tools and libraries. Its Custom
Stacks provide a cost-effective way for ISVs and internal IT departments to
ship a complete, integrated package that includes their software and the
third party components that it depends on in an easy to install package. The
resulting installers present a streamlined installation process that reduces
both support calls and end-user frustration, helping companies to speed
product adoption.
