How to release faster while maintaining quality?

How to meet application SLAs?

Zend Server

What is Zend Server?• Web Application Server for running and

managing business-critical PHP applications

• Production quality Stack A complete, well-tested and supported PHP 5 stack –

70+extensions, ZF, DB connectivity and a lot more

• Two Editions - Free “Community Edition” & Full commercial edition Both are production ready

• Rapid root cause analysis with application monitoring and diagnostics (integrated with Zend Studio IDE)

• Application deployment

• Multi-level performance enhancement capabilities

• Zend Framework Integration

• Software updates and security hot fixes

Improving Developer Productivity Tracking, installing, and configuring PHP

libraries and drivers is a development time sink

Allows you to spend more time writing code

Ensures standardization across the development team

Provides a consistent, supported, and up-to-date PHP stack

PHP caching APIs and Zend Framework built in

• Application Deployment Package complete apps for hand-off to operations

team, with predefined settings and parameters

Rapid rollback to recover from deploying bad changes

Pro-active alerting on application changes and deployment issues

• IT Automation Scalability for application, not just infrastructure

• APIs for automated provisioning, configuring and deployment of applications

• APIs for auto-scaling highly available clusters

Automated provisioning of standardized environments across development, testing, staging and production• Enables modern Continuous Integration (CI) processes

Cut Problem Resolution by 50%How do I cut the time developers spend on problem resolution?

Code Tracing• Eliminates the need to reproduce problems

• Records live application execution when problems occur

• Activated through Zend Server monitoring rules or manually

• Works in a live production environment or in a test lab
