Talk comments
Should definitely post the slides. I appreciated the several different architectures and the comparative analysis. As a whole it would also be great to hear more emphasis on where you see this area going within the next year or so. Also, it might be interesting to see some comparisons between MySQL and other Open Source SQL DBs(maybe Postgres?).
Great presenter with very detailed, high-quality slides and code examples!
Great presenter! Fast, but perfectly happy to stop and elaborate when necessary. I felt that a lot of material was covered in a short period of time. The Session Security, Data Access Management, and Logging segments were especially useful.
Excellent job! I've been using the Doctrine ORM/ODM modules for close to a year now and still managed to learn some new things from this talk. I would love to see a more in-depth talk in the future aimed at developers who have already had exposure to Doctrine and want to get an idea of what else is available besides the typical use cases.
I really enjoyed this talk and it is very relevant to what I'll be working on in the weeks to come. This was my first exposure to Behat/Mink beyond "hey, you should check out Behat/Mink" and I'll definitely be utilizing pinning tests in my upcoming refactoring.
The only thing I would suggest is to perhaps go into a bit more depth with Behat/Mink - perhaps with live code samples.
Excellent talk on security in Zend and security in general.
meh, some good info but I'm not sure that it warranted an entire lecture.
Overall a good talk, I especially appreciated the very explicit slides with the code examples, but I think that it was weighted a bit to the very basic concepts of git which slowed it down a bit. Perhaps it would be best to start at a level assuming a very basic understanding of git so more of the talk can be devoted to best-practices and workflow.
I had a conversation with Ralph earlier in the day about this very thing, because I was wondering how far I should go along this path. Thanks! This talk really helped me to understand better the whole concept of models, and how and when I should move farther along the line towards domain driven design and how to use Zend/Db to get there.
