Advanced PHP Training

Three industry-leading PHP consultants demonstrate iterative software development using state-of-the-art tools and methods in this highly interactive and entertaining two-day training event. A fictitious company named MESS (MESsage System) is used to tell the story of a startup that has millions of potential users and struggles with the usual problems such as scalability and security in a market where you have to be agile in order to adapt to changing requirements rapidly.

Attendees of this training will witness the development of a mobile messaging service platform from the requirements stage through software development and all the way into operations and maintenance. Every development step will be explained in-depth while an application is developed live in front of the audience.

Over the course of two days, three development sprints (or iterations) of software development will be performed. Each sprint will showcase problems from a different phase of the application's lifecycle. At the end of each sprint we will deploy working software into production and look back at what we did in an agile retrospective.

The topics covered include: application architecture, API design, OOP, test automation, security, and deployment. Instead of textbook examples, real-life problems and solution are discussed. Take advantage of this uniquely intense form of knowledge transfer at an unbeatable cost-to-benefit ratio.
