PHPConf 2009

Yesterday was at a PHP developers conference. It took place in the grand hotel Milan near metro station Domodedovskaya. It was opened by PHP release manager Johannes Schluter , i.e. Not certainly in that way. Gaidar Magdanurov from Microsoft opened the conference with a slide: “Microsoft loves you” and a 16 GB flash drive raffle using the binary search method. I did not win ( kekssw , hello, it looks like my luck rate <1).

Later, Johan was talking in English about PHP 5.3. From the hall there was a replica that when you run the code on 5.3, which worked without problems in 5.2, it began to spend more memory. Author replicas advised to show the code or deal with the hands. And someone, they say, is still developing for PHP 4. They were advised to urgently upgrade, because Version 5 is much faster, judging by the benchmarks from Sebastian Bergmann . For the same benchmarks it follows that the net test execution time in 5.3 is 1.2 times faster than in 5.2.

The author of Sphinx spoke with a review report, he himself was more interesting than the report. A little later, he and comrades from the audience in the business of Alexander Veremiev from Zend Core pinched :) I also got the impression that the PHP community has a negative attitude towards the Zend Framework, although the framework framework functionality looks interesting (at least according to the documentation).

Before Veremiev, there was Andrei Beshkov from Microsoft, who spoke about the efforts undertaken by Microsoft to popularize web development on their platform. According to their data, 90% of PHP developers work on Windows, but for the production systems they use Unix. Now small web studios and web startups have the opportunity to obtain licenses for web application development tools almost for free. About the server I do not remember.

I will also note three interesting speakers and their reports:

The report by Vadim Kryuchkov, unfortunately, did not listen to the end, but the people present said that the economic calculations for one of the Russian clients showed an opportunity to reduce costs by 50% when moving to the "cloud". At the same time, Vadim Kryuchkov promised that the report would do without Marketing Bullshit. I also liked the idea of ​​opening the cloud management interface for third-party users instead of dealing with them.
