Enterprise PHP and cloud interest grows, focuses on quality and speed

“The software development industry continues to evolve at a rapid pace, with enterprise-wide cloud development practices becoming increasingly attractive to IT organizations.

Software-driven enterprises see the cloud as a means to improve collaboration and productivity, and accelerate time to market with quality software applications.

This trend is evident in survey responses regarding developers’ intentions to use public clouds for app development and deployment projects in 2012.

More than 60% intend to use public clouds, with 54% already specifying a public cloud of choice. Amazon Web Services was the dominant public cloud with 30%.”

A virtual application pattern

captures a topology and provides lifecycle hooks

Zend defines an ideal topology for deployments. Contains best practices – their expertise – for deploying highly available PHP clusters.

Packaged as a logical pattern, with plug-ins for the component parts (load balancer, cluster manager, application server, database).

IBM cloud provides the infrastructure (virtual machines, networking, DB2-as-a-Service) that it needs, and fulfills the quality of service for failover and scaling.

Deploying repeatedly via REST API

1. Upload the application package as a virtual application pattern.

POST https://<IWD>/resources/applicationPatterns/Content-Type: application/zip of appmodel and archive

2. Deploy the virtual application instance.

POST https://<IWD>/resources/applicationPatterns/<app_id>/virtualApplications/Content-Type: application/json of cloud group

3. Retrieve the provisioned virtual machine names.

GET https://<IWD>/resources/virtualApplications/<deployment_id>

Recap

Zend has defined an expertly configured architecture for scalable, highly available PHP applications.

You can take advantage of this by installing their virtual application onto an on-premise PureSystems rack, or running it on the public SmartCloud Enterprise.

Those IBM clouds will handle scaling in response to demand, replacing failed nodes, and offering DB2 integration.
