MediaWiki is an extremely powerful, scalable software and a
feature-rich wiki implementation, that uses PHP to process and
display data stored in its MySQL database. When a user submits
an edit to a page, MediaWiki writes it to the database, but
without deleting the previous versions of the page, thus
allowing easy reverts in case of vandalism or spamming.
MediaWiki can manage image and multimedia files, too, which are
stored in the filesystem. For large wikis with lots of users,
MediaWiki supports caching and can be easily coupled with Squid
proxy server software. |
