Meeting Start Time: Tue, 19 Jan 2010 18:30:00 -0800
This will be a narrative presentation of one user’s experience as Lead Developer on Nebul.us upgrading a Symfony application for deployment to Amazon’s cloud-based infrastructure.
We will discuss the obstacles met along the way, including juggling master and slave database connections, writing uploaded files to S3, and distributing static assets using the CloudFront CDN.
Additionally, integration with the Symfony configuration and environments system will be demonstrated, allowing one application to be developed locally and seamlessly deployed to the cloud.

Great Job Kris!
Where can a brother get an invite code to Nebul.us? Would love to give that a whirl.
PS, here are the Open Source projects I was talking about at the meeting:
Memcached: http://code.google.com/p/memcachemanager/
APNS: http://code.google.com/p/easyapns/
Have a Nice Day!

There’s now a PDXPHP invitation code on nebul.us that you can use if you want to check it out. Thanks again for a great meeting, everyone!
