SPL offers a lot of awesome functionalities in PHP, but somehow it doesn't get much attention. Not only is it quite hidden in the huge PHP documentation, it also lacks some good documentation itself. In this slides, we take a look at a few SPL classes, special cases and some corrections of docs.

The days of a "simple" LAMP stack are behind us. We now rely on different types of technologies, applications and services to run our web based applications. With "the cloud" we have learned how to distribute our operations, but are we resilient when these cloud services are not available? We have all heard about the major outages of Amazon and Azure in the past and many online services were impacted by those outages. So how can you protect yourself against being "offline" for hours or days and what are the tools you can use to protect yourself against it? Learn how we protect our customers with distributed systems (cloud and on-prem) to mitigate outages and stay online even when the lights go out.
