Talk at ZendCon 2009 Uncon (English - US)
Format: Round-table Discussion
Cloud computing is undoubtedly one of the biggest buzzwords of 2009. But what does it really mean for traditional PHP framework developers? Is this a paradigm-shifting move for the industry or just another tool in the toolbox? The goal for this session is to cut through the hype and have an open, buzzword-free discussion around the realistic advantages and disadvantages of deploying and optimizing PHP frameworks on cloud platforms.

One of the biggest problems , with big ideas, is the big time involved in realizing your vision. Cutting the time and effort from idea to a live site will undoubtedly produce more valuable content. PS this is a 5 star rating but there is no indicator of Im selecting 5 or 1.

The Cloud should run all 'correct' code. It should be as permissable as possible with a 'do no harm' philosophy.
I think this session would be a key one for a practical developer thinking about the next generation of runtimes and what that means to their code and choices.

The progression to "cloud" infrastructure is the next step in web development, especially for social apps with highly variable usage.

I think this session will be a very interesting for developers exploring options for building applications for the cloud.
Definitely worth the while...

Our company has been hosting in the "cloud" (Mosso and now the Rackspace Cloud) for several years no. Part of the reason I'm voting of this is that I really like the round-table format for UnCon sessions.

This is a great idea...PHP framework support in the cloud is something that needs to be discussed...and helping us dev guys know what the options are. Thanks!!!!

Agreed! Buzz off the buzzwords. "Realistic" approach is what is needed!

Cloud computing is definitely big. I haven't found a whole lot of support for it yet, but it'd be great to have PHP frameworks optimized for cloud platforms. Being able to deploy websites quickly to the cloud would give me a lot more time to focus on the content and quality of the site rather than all the overhead associated with server management.
