This document discusses practical PHP deployment with Jenkins. It begins with an introduction of the author and overview of continuous integration and deployment. The main topics covered are using Jenkins for continuous integration and deployment of PHP applications, with a demonstration of deploying a 500K line Pimcore CMS project using Jenkins jobs for source control, testing, packaging, and deployment. Best practices and architectures involving Git, Jenkins and Zend Server are also discussed.

Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
●
Fan of iteration
– Pretty much everything requires iteration to do well:
●
Long distance running
●
Judo
●
Development
●
Evading project managers
●
Deploying!

4. 4
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Dev VS Ops
– Dev = Ops
– Dev doesn't like Ops
– Can't communicate
– Challenges syncing

5. 5
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Continuous Delivery
– Not a single app solution
– Many pieces
– Not covered here
● Provisioning of servers
●
Integration to monitoring
– We will focus on:

● Continuous Integration

7. 7
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Deployment
– FTP works...NOT!
– Many large PHP sites
– Simple != solution

8. 8
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● 5 to 7 Releases...A Day!
– Not achievable with FTP
– Must be automated

9. 9
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Ready To Deploy!
– Not after every commit
– But always “ready”

10. 10
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Best Practices
– No holy grail here
– Many dependencies
● Development team
●
Application
●
Size of application
●
How to implement

11. 11
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Architecture
– Git
– Jenkins
– Zend Server

12. 12
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Zend Server
– Full PHP application stack
– Supported
– Consistent across OS
– Automated deployment
– Cluster management

13. 13
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● WebAPI – Restful Service
– Built API first
– GUI is just the front-end

14. 14
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Source Control
– !Github here (just in case)
– Using Git

15. 16
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● PHP QA Tools
– http://phpqatools.org
● PHPUnit
●
pdepend

16. 17
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Docker
– Linux Containers
– Versioned (“Git for servers”)
– Stores delta

17. 18
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● When Apps Break
– What's really to blame?

18. 19
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Root Cause Analysis
– What is the cause
● How to prevent
●
How to fix
– Needs to happen fast!

19. 20
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Rollback
– Within 30 seconds
● Even in a cluster!

20. 21
Practical PHP Deployment with Jenkins
● Demo
– Using Pimcore CMS (500K lines of code)
– Jenkins
● Multiple jobs from:
– Checkout
– Testing
– Packaging
– Deployment to staging
– Rollback
– Deploy to production (cluster)
– Then we'll see the details
