You have got to admire the evil villany we're up against. Buying the 'M' in LAMP and then exploiting that position.
Business first, not the heart and minds of developers.
Luckily the 'L' + 'A' + 'P' cannot be bought.
LAPP stack anyone?

So, back in the day, that drove me to conclude that all the MySQL fans were crazy, and I decided to use Postgres at home, since Windows != server, and having done quite enough XBase once upon a time, DB integrity had some value to me.
LAPP? Bring it!
Is the final P PHP, or Perl (which would be my preference)? Maybe make it an R for Ruby? :-)
Unless P=Python? :-)
LAMP is a loaded acronym which these days basically means "a web app built using FOS but not in Java or Ruby".
Am I normal?
For example: http://tagwalk.com/tag/MySQL
I hope your development is driven by accurate profiling and benchmarks. It's much better to have a dirty, but very surgical fix in a specific bottle-neck, than to have your application "scaled" with too many layers of individually "optimized" components, that bog each other to a crawl when combined.
Mono for long-running and complex backend processes.
nginx, PHP, MySQL, memcache - for presentation - quick!
node.js provides an event bus between PHP and Mono
MongoDB is taking over from storing large blobs of JSON in MySQL.
I was on the opposite side of things, when I did we last. I had language integrated into the web server, and I wrote my own caching primitives. All optimization went into the request handler, and optimizing a single function is easier than debugging a whole stack.
A decent solution, but it had no massive inputs, so I slept better at night knowing it wasn't being tested.
rails, sinatra, mysql, resque, custom email server (looking for a name...), memcached.
How the heck do you mix in mono?!?
