Magento is an open-source content management system for e-commerce web sites. The software was originally developed by Varien Inc., a US private company headquartered in Culver City, California, with assistance from volunteers. Varien published the first general-availability release of the software on March 31, 2008. Roy Rubin, former CEO of Varien, later sold a substantial share of the company to eBay, which is now the sole owner. According to the research conducted by aheadWorks in May 2015, Magento's market share among the 30 most popular e-commerce platforms is about 29.8%. Magento employs the MySQL/MariaDB relational database management system, the PHP programming language, and elements of the Zend Framework.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Varien and the Magento eCommerce Platform )〕 It applies the conventions of object-oriented programming and model-view-controller architecture. Magento also uses the entity–attribute–value model to store data. ==History== Magento officially started development in early 2007. Seven months later, on August 31, 2007, the first public beta version was released. Varien, the company owning Magento, formerly worked with osCommerce. It had originally planned to fork osCommerce but later decided to rewrite it as Magento. In February 2011, eBay announced it had made an investment in Magento in 2010, worth a 49% ownership share of the company.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=eBay Owns 49% Of Magento Inc – Confirmed )〕 On June 6, 2011, eBay announced that it would be acquiring the rest of Magento, which would join its new X.Commerce initiative. Magento's CEO and co-founder Roy Rubin wrote on the Magento blog that "Magento will continue to operate out of Los Angeles, with Yoav Kutner and me as its leaders.". Yoav Kutner left Magento in April 2012 citing the vision for Magento having changed since the time of acquisition due to high level staff changes. As a result of the breakup of eBay following Carl Icahn's raid, Magento was spun out as an independent company by the Permira private equity fund on November 3, 2015. In the autumn of 2015, it was discovered that a critical flaw in the system left users open to a ransomware attack. () 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Magento」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
