Rock Solid Deployment of Symfony Apps

Just wanted to give a plug for https://github.com/vend/phanglia - if you're already using Ganglia, this'll send UDP metric packets to gmond, so you won't have to run StatsD *and* gmond.

Also: you might want to mention atomicity. (fwrite in unix is not atomic). That's the idea behind the 'current' symlink pointed at a release: it prevents reads falling between two partial writes. This is especially important with an opcache, where the first read is going to get cached.

Very informative. I only wish there was more time to cover the CI aspect and other deployment tools.

One of the best talks so far, full of info, tools and recommendations.

Very nice round up of the different alternatives out there. And yes, death to FTP
