Basic Information
Magento is an open-source e-commerce platform written in PHP. It uses multiple other PHP frameworks such as Laminas and Symfony. Magento source code is distributed under Open Software License (OSL) v3.0. The software was originally developed by Varien Inc., a US private company headquartered in Culver City, California, with assistance from volunteers. Magento employs the MySQL or MariaDB relational database management system, the PHP programming language, and elements of the Zend Framework. It applies the conventions of object-oriented programming and model–view–controller architecture. Magento also uses the entity–attribute–value model to store data and as of version 2.4 it requires Elasticsearch for its catalog search capability. On top of that, Magento 2 introduced the Model-View-View-Model pattern to its front-end code using the JavaScript library Knockout.js. Magento was acquired by Adobe Inc in May 2018 for $1.68 billion.
