Dutch PHP Conference 2015
25 - 27 Jun 2015 at RAI Amsterdam

Hi Federico,

Sorry I left you disappointed. The SQL stuff was only included to make sure novice users could understand what was happening. I've done this talk before and some people really found it convenient. Now I notice some people didn't like it.

I had no intention to start any discussion, the only goal was to "get things done". A 40 minute time slot is too short for that, unfortunately. Also it's way too short to cover stuff in-depth, like the management part.

I specifically mentioned that in one of my slides: "Plenty of ways ... for which we don't have time"

Maybe one day, I'll do a dedicated talk about ElasticSearch management. I'll let you know if/when that happens.

Too bad I wasted your time. Do you believe you were misled by the abstract? Let me know if there's a way to improve that.

Thanks for the honest feedback
Thijs

Very nice historical overview and thoughts. Dean shown very good talking skills.

Very good talk about Varnish possibilities, with a good theoretical explanation, as well as brief and clear code examples.

I had great expectations from this talk - this could be the reason why I was disappointed. There were weird comparisons between SQL queries and Elastic Search commands, and there was no discussion about "real" use cases. Also, the talk provided us with some ideas about what operations ElasticSearch can perform, but with no discussion about performance, storage, stability, administrative tasks, etc.

The topic is very interesting for me, but I've found the talk a bit disappointing. It covered only very basic examples (most probably available on the web) and there were no discussion about Docker internals, performance, etc.

Very clear and interesting. A good combo of theory and practice (even if not hands-on). When the talk finished, I couldn't wait to experiment with Ansible.

First of all, presenter did a great job standing up and sharing his experience. However, he admitted, he was more a backend guy, which showed up, I guess. Well, he underpinned that all guys in his company are good both at frontend and backend technologies (sorry, but I don't believe in myth about full stack developers). So, apart from that, the talk was pretty dry mentioning of the best practices. On the other hand, some people in room never heard about Selenium before, so it should have been informative somehow.

Very informative, gave me some great ideas for setting up a testlab in a VMWare LAN Segement to test out and maybe build on suggested setup. I'm half way and it looks like it's a very good setup. Little to no configurations to the default config files of NGinx, PHP5-FPM, Redis or MySql. It gives you a very scalable and redundant stack. Only I would like to see a constructive solution for a solution for shared storage where all the PHP server coulf write and read files.

Good informative talk. gives some direct hands on tools to get your site more secure.

Again some very helpful insights from matthias. This will definitely help me write better applications
