SymfonyCon Vienna 2024, our next annual international Symfony conference, will take place on:

December 3 & 4: Two days of hands-on workshops to learn, practice, and enhance your skills in small groups.
December 5 & 6: Three English-speaking tracks with over 35 outstanding speakers, an Unconference track, and a lively community evening.

🎤 New speaker announcement!

We are super happy to announce our next speaker: Thomas di Luccio (@zenhysteria), DevRel Engineer, Platform.sh will present „Bulletproofing for Black Friday“:

„The holiday season, especially Black Friday, is a goldmine for e-commerce apps—but only if they can handle the traffic. When the surge hits, unprepared applications buckle under pressure, leading to frustrated users and crashed servers. Been there, done that…

In this talk, I’ll share some e-commerce horror stories from the trenches and show you how to avoid becoming one. We’ll dive into a proven roadmap to reliability using production cloning, traffic generation, and real-time observability.

With these strategies (plus a dash of your magic), you’ll have the perfect recipe to ensure your app withstands the holiday rush—and you can relax, knowing your system won’t let you down.“
