Running Symfony on AWS Lambda with Neal Brooks
Our very own Neal Brooks has recently presented at SymfonyLive London 2018, discussing how to run PHP and Symfony on AWS Lambda. I was lucky enough to grab him for an hour to expand upon his interesting talk and the experiences he has had going Serverless with Symfony.
We start off by discussing what drew him to Lambda, and the new tooling that is making it easier to run PHP and frameworks (such as Symfony) on it. This leads us to cover his demo application, and explore handling assets using S3, database migrations and AWS resources using CloudFormation. Finally, we debate using catch-all gateway endpoints vs. dedicated gateway endpoints and Lambda performance.
