After discussing a bit about Zend Server, I'm particularly
interested in what will happen to the product after the release of
PHP6. Perhaps that is so far off, that there is no use thinking
about it.
PHP6 in its original incarnation (refactoring PHP to have native Unicode
support) is currently dead. Currently planned is a PHP 5.<Next> (which
could be either 5.4 or 6.0). I know the Zend Server team has been quick
to produce new versions that adopt new minor versions of PHP (they had a
5.3 version available very quickly following, if not in parallel to, the
official 5.3.0 release); I suspect this will be true whatever the next
minor or major version of PHP might be.
Interesting to know about scrapping of PHP6. I hope Unicode support will
make it into a future PHP version.
APC is supposed to be integrated in the PHP core. Where does that
put Zend Optimizer WRT Zend Server? Will it be dropped?
Probably not.
While APC would be shipped by default, you would still need to opt-in to
its functionality. As such, there's still room for other op-code
caches. Optimizer differs quite a bit from APC and offers different
features -- and different performance. As such, I'm sure it will
continue to be incorporated in Zend Server.
This is probably the most interesting part of the Zend Server to me. As
such, I'll need to look into doing some performance tests.
Thanks for the info!
