Alright, I don't know if it's a good idea to challenge these two, is there any relation between them?
I understand LAMPP: it's the installation of Apache, MySql, PHP and Perl (or Python) on Linux.
But I don't quite understand what the Ubuntu server is.
Please, explain me what I can do with Ubuntu server and if it has any relation with LAMPP. (if yes, is it better than LAMPP?).
Thank you.

The Ubuntu Server is the 'L' in 'LAMP'; that is to say, Ubuntu Server is a Linux-based Operating System (L) on which people run the Apache HTTP Server (A) with MySQL or MariaDB for data storage (M) and Python, Perl, or PHP for scripting (P).

People also run Debian, CentOS, and RedHat as their L. Ubuntu is growing pretty popular as a LAMP OS because of its quick installation and deployment, as well as five years of free LTS (Long Term Supported) support from Canonical.
