This document discusses building high-performance web applications using PHP and MongoDB. It provides a brief history of relevant technologies like relational databases and the World Wide Web. It then discusses PHP frameworks and the rise of web applications. MongoDB is presented as a suitable database for self-taught developers, offering advantages like excellent geolocation support, replication, and speed. The document advocates an object-oriented and performance-focused approach using technologies like MongoDB, and presents examples of companies using these techniques.

1. Building High-Performance Web-Applications
With PHP and MongoDB
-- future web-technologies today --
http://r1.my

2. CHAPTER 1:
A BRIEF HISTORY IN TIME

3. A LONG TIME AGO
IN A GALAXY, FAR-FAR AWAY

4. IMPORTANT DATES
1974
RELATIONAL DATABASES
1989
WORLD WIDE WEB

5. From Blogs, to CMS, to Web-Applications
SO STARTS A GENERATION OF SELF-TAUGHT DEVELOPERS
WordPress
Publishing Platform Vs CMS
Web Applications Vs Other Languages

6. RUBY SLIPPERS (ON RAILS)
IN 2004 - THE ERA OF WEB-APPS BEGIN

7. CHAPTER 2:
WHERE DO PHP DEVELOPERS NOW STAND?

8. ALTERNATIVES
SUITABLE FOR A SELF-TAUGHT GENERATION
- HOWEVER -
WE’RE HERE TO TALK ABOUT PHP

9. FRAMEWORKS
THE MVC ERA

10. High-Performance Applications
THE TRILOGY
DESIGN
THE
DATABASE
THE BIG
THE APPLICATION

11. DESIGNING FOR PERFORMANCE
MOBILE FIRST DEVELOPMENT
( FOCUS ON FEATURES – ONLY LOAD WHAT’S NEEDED )
OPTIMISTIC ON-SCREEN ACTIONS
( SHOW LIKES AND COMMENTS ON SCREEN IMMEDIATELY )
PREEMPTIVE ACTIONS
( UPLOAD IMAGES WHILST TAGGING, PRE-FETCH TABS, ETC )

12. DATA AT THE APPLICATION LEVEL
“In 2012, NoSQL document stores like MongoDB received more than 70 percent of total
big-data tool demand. MongoDB from 10gen remains the top performer in this group.”
-- CNET

14. MongoDB Traction

15. EXCELLENT GEOLOCATION SUPPORT
Have you ever heard of Foursquare …?

16. REPLICA-SETS AND SHARDING

17. IT’S LIGHTENING FAST !!!
Some say 6,000 times faster than MySQL – http://lauli.ma/geo1

18. GRIDFS – MEDIA STORAGE & SERVING

19. NO LANGUAGE BARRIERS
( ALSO KEEPS ALL LOGIC IN ONE PLACE )

20. PERFORMANCE - VS - FUNCTIONALITY

21. PERFORMANCE - VS - FUNCTIONALITY

22. PERFORMANCE - VS - FUNCTIONALITY

23. THERE IS NO SPOON !!!
( OR NEED TO LEAVE YOUR APP )

24. APPLICATION ARCHITECTURE
REMOVE LEGACY RELIANCE
( OLDER VERSIONS OF PHP ARE USELESS TODAY )
OBJECT ORIENTATED PROGRAMMING
( EASIER TO MAINTAIN - OBJECTS CAN BE CACHED )
ONLY INCLUDE WHAT IS NECESSARY
( AUTO-LOADING AND INCLUSION OF CLASSES )

25. CHAPTER 3:
