Thursday, May 15. 2008Intimate PHP Seminar
So we decided that in order to get to see all the people who are interested in PHP leadership topics, we should run an intimate seminar and invite our contacts along. If there is demand, we could run these every month. Here is the invitation that went out:
Free Seminar: Enterprise PHP and Zend Title: Enterprise PHP and Zend Date: 10th June 2008 Time: 9:00 - 13:00 Location: King's College London (Hodgkin Building, Guy's Campus Speaker: Ivo Jansch, CTO of Ibuildings and leading PHP expert Are you a sophisticated PHP developer, or a newbie? Either way, you need to make the best of your resources, be they people delivering projects, or hardware serving your customers.
Take this opportunity to learn from the industry experts the importance of PHP best practices:
Ibuildings are holding a PHP seminar on the 10th June, 9am - 1pm, at King's College London (Guy's Campus, right next to London Bridge), with lunch following presentations and discussions. The event will be an intimate seminar, for just a few attendees. Ibuildings has invited Ivo Jansch, our CTO and leading PHP expert, to share his experiences on Enterprise PHP. In this presentation, Ivo talks about the three major challenges that PHP development teams face nowadays. The first challenge is that good PHP developers are increasingly hard to find. To grow the team is no longer a simple matter of adding new developers. Instead, we have to look at ways to make the existing team more productive. The second challenge is maintaining code. Once a project is complete, it is usually not over. If maintenance is not done properly, valuable time can be lost, and new projects will be negatively influenced by interruptions from existing projects. The third challenge is scale. An application is running smoothly, until all of a sudden your site is mentioned on one of the popular blogs or featured on TV. If scalability is not tackled right from the start, the site will go down from the load, and what could have been your 15 minutes of fame turns into 15 minutes of shame. During his talk, Ivo will cover procedures and tools to cope with these challenges, to get a better website in less time. We will also be showcasing some of the Zend products. To reserve your place at the seminar, fill in your details on this online form or call us on +44 (0)208 359 1214, by the 30th of May, in order to guarantee your free place. We look forward to seeing you there! Share         |
