ZendCon 2013
7 - 10 Oct 2013 at Santa Clara, CA Convention Center

Content was good for not knowing composer. For me I thought the presentation was a little slow.

Great!

What was the name of the blue book you mentioned at the beginning of the talk?

Nice introduction to composer and coverage of some more advanced topics.

Informative; hadn't heard of some of the advanced features.

Very energized by this presentation

Good basic overview of composer and its features.

Perhaps one of my favorite sessions, the speaker covered a lot that I had listened to on the first day in the clean application development tutorial, but in a more streamlined (and I think less opinionated) manner. I feel like the information presented can be directly translated into actionable items that startups and managers can immediately work on to improve operations.

Excellent crash course on mongo db. As someone thinking about how we might be able to leverage this technology in the future, it was useful information. I would have personally liked to see more compare-contrast with RDBMS, but that wasn't the point of the course. Code samples were nice, flow was clear and touched on a lot and speaker was extremely knowledgable.

Excellent discussion on important security considerations in an abstract concept beyond the basics. Security is a huge field so not everything could be covered, but some things like pattern analysis and treating suspicious requests differently is a logical and overlooked step many apps can (and should) take.
