Hy,
Another framework, which seems more reliable and high-performance is
the Zend-Framework. Is the performance of the Zend-Framework high
enough to serve Projekts like ours?
Well, that answer is not simple to answer.
It also depends on the architecture you have in mind, the level of coding,
the size of the server, the underlaying database and and and...
In general it should work with 8000 people.
Best would be if you just make an stress test to see possible bottlenecks in
your design.
The second thing seems to be more crucial:
What about the compatibility for next versions... because the
Zend-Framework still seems to be beta (0.2)? What ist the date for the
Version 1.0? If we start now with Zend-FW and with that we gain higher
productivity which might loses with the modifikations we have to do for
compatibility in further Versions... Are there any intentions to alter
the basic MVC-concept and file-architecture of Zend-FW 1.0 in
particular?
We discussed internaly exactly the same thing you juts mentioned.
The framework is much more finished as a version 0.2 seems.
It should be reversioned to 0.5 or 0.6...
Our next release, which was dated around the 01.Dec will have Version 0.6
and
0.7 will release latest at 31.Dec (we're working hard to make this possible)
:-)
But this will only target new components or bugfixes, and will not change
architecture or
compatibility.
The MVC concept which is now released within the incubator is the version
which will make it into the
Version 1.0. So if you use the classes from the released incubator (0.2 -
incubator), you will also
use our next release canditates, so you will have to do no changes when a
new release has arised.
The file-architecture is fixed and will not change anymore. Well, it hasn't
changed since 8 months or so. ;-)
Hopefully this answers most of your questions.
If not just throw an question to the list.
