6 Tips to Build Fast Web Applications (Php Dublin March 2016 Talk)

A talk about server performance in web applications, with some degree of focus on Php. For the Dublin Php Meetup March 2016

Following one of my previous posts about performance in web applications, yesterday night I had the chance to give a related talk at the Php Dublin user group.

My talk was preceded by a great talk (and demo) by Ricardo Melo (@rjsmelo) called Docker and Php, a practical use case. If you are interested in the topic, be sure to check it out!

It was a great night, I learned a lot and I had a lot of fun, so thank you to everyone involved.

If you are interested in having a look at the slides, here they are:
