Great talk, very depth in infrastructure architecture, but I only think it lacked a bit in application architecture.
You covered a lot the infrastructure, but the only parts that you touched you mentioned things like "we had to make many optimization at Symfony code"... other one: "We rewrote a few Symfony components for our needs".
I saw that you have put your team to deliver some enhancements back to Open Source community. It's a great move, but maybe you could provide more if it's not business specific code? =)
I finally found myself what everybody tell me... I'm Murdock. \o/
Despite some very few kind of hard to grasp roles (like Faceman hiring, someone mentioned before), it is a good recipe of how you should envision your team and what to expect when hiring people.
Some of the roles could be played by not only one, but multiple players or even a single person on A-team could represent multiple people in your team.
Anyway, I spoke too much and forgot to evaluate the talk. It was a great presentation, one of the best I saw at ConFoo... you truly deserve 5 stars.
Good talk. It would be great to point to have pointed to some other books that most people consider as requirements.
I could easily point some, like PoEAA, GoF and Clean Code.
Maybe it's a suggestion for the next time you give this talk. =)
Great talk, deserves 5 stars for sure.
A good improvement point would be more real world examples and some known Graph navigation algorithms, like Dijkstra, Topological Sorting and AI pseudo codes for searching, mainly the used ones for recommendation, such as A*.
Perfect introduction for anyone interest in this area. Well presented and very interesting.
Went into this expecting SOA to be talked about. It wasn't.
This was 100% Java terminology & tools, nothing was talked about as language-agnostic concepts.
Very disappointing to be misled by the title.
Really enjoyed this talk. Not only was the talk itself extremely well done, but the topic was by far the most interesting at the conference, I think.
We are looking to research this soon and possibly start using it.
Did not attend the talk, but the slides give an excellent review of the major and minor points. Thanks Ilia!
Me too never attended, but the slides makes me feel it was an awesome talk :-) .
Good talk.
I just wouldn't recommend to advertise the support of Controllers as Services, since it doesn't sound like a correct solution for problems architecture-wise. I tend to agree with Fabien on this.
Except that, it was a good talk, with a lot of features covered, some quickly - which probably caused some people to loose you -, and other ones in some depth.
