Have some personal news... My time at Laravel has come to an end.
In 5 years & 6 months I've got to work with brilliant people & learned a lot. Now it's time to go back to being a Laravel user & one of its biggest fans.
Had to wait till after April fool's day to write this 😀

For many years, I considered all talk about scale to be irrelevant. If you throw enough money at it, any web stack can scale to handle more traffic.
With an abundance of free investor money, I've always believed that startups should choose the stack that allows them to move…

These past 12 months were the most intense:
- Lost >60% of my life savings
- Left my country for good
- Lost my place at Laravel
- Gained 15 kilos after being athletic most of my life
Haven't shared my yearly review for 2 years. So here's my share.

One month since switching from Lambda to EC2. Cost savings are hundreds of thousands of dollars on annual basis.
We haven't used reserved instances yet, and I'm convinced that by moving a few more endpoints from PHP to Go, we could reduce the number of instances to half.

One of the recent use cases for GoLang was building a worker for an SQS queue that receives over 50m jobs/day. There were 100 PHP workers maxing out a 4 vCPU instance.
Switching to Go & using coroutines allowed us to run 700 workers on the same machine.

Did you know you can do subdomain routing in Laravel?
Useful if your app responds to multiple domains and you want to match a set of routes to a specific subdomain.
Also useful to test subdomains in Valet + Production without having to hardcode the domains.

Laravel v8.19 comes with better control over code that runs around DB transactions. From dispatching queued jobs to running event listeners, you may now tell Laravel to run the code only when the transaction has committed. Wrote about it in my recent post:

Part 1 of "PHP to Go" is 1h 27m. I focused on comparing the concepts to ones in PHP so it's easier to relate to.
Go gives us more control when it comes to memory management. For these parts, I found it easier to compare the concepts to those found in databases and ORMs.

There's a set of misconceptions about PHP when it's compared to Node. Mainly around its performance as it's not async and it terminates after every request. They all miss the presence of things like Swoole/Roadrunner/Octane...
In speed, cost of dev, popularity, talent. PHP wins.
