Ibuildings are holding a PHP seminar on the 10th September, 9.30am - 1pm, at Temple Bar Hotel, Dublin, with lunch following presentations and discussions. The event will be an intimate seminar, for just a few attendees.
Ibuildings has invited Ivo Jansch, CTO and leading PHP expert, to share his experiences on Enterprise PHP. In this presentation, Ivo talks about the three major challenges that PHP development teams face nowadays. The first challenge is that good PHP developers are increasingly hard to find. To grow the team is no longer a simple matter of adding new developers. Instead, we have to look at ways to make the existing team more productive. The second challenge is maintaining code. Once a project is complete, it is usually not over. If maintenance is not done properly, valuable time can be lost, and new projects will be negatively influenced by interruptions from existing projects. The third challenge is scale. An application is running smoothly, until all of a sudden your site is mentioned on one of the popular blogs or featured on TV. If scalability is not tackled right from the start, the site will go down from the load, and what could have been your 15 minutes of fame turns into 15 minutes of shame.
During this talk, Ivo will cover procedures and tools to cope with these challenges, to get a better website in less time. We will also be showcasing some of the Zend products.
Cost: 50 euros + VAT per attendee (including coffee/tea and lunch). Sign up now, and you will also receive a free copy of Ivo's book on Enterprise PHP, published by php|architect!
