I think symfony is a great tool for fast development, and this is the main purpose I'm using it. In case of building social network, there are better technologies like Java or .NET which can outperform PHP and are not bound to request->processing->responce model.
It is possible to build large social network with symfony (with memcache and lots of other interesting technologies) but the most important is backend, which is proper database/databases optimization and the server infrastructure, backups. You must remember about law which is strict in many countries about privacy policy (for example take a look at Facebook) and assuring that data are safe etc. 2011/2/16 coolmec33 <[email protected]> > Hello everyone, > > I want to know the feasibility of a social network (profiles, walls, > groups, friends ....) with the symfony framework. > > I have already worked on several projects with symfony and I know is > very powerful, and it can do many things, and From these experiences I > think it's doable. > > I ask you just to know your opinion on this kind of project and > especially that it will be very large and complex as a project. > > can we do a facebook with symfony? > > I await your ideas and I'm open to discussion. > > thank you > > N.B: sorry for my bad english > > -- > If you want to report a vulnerability issue on symfony, please send it to > security at symfony-project.com > > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "symfony users" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected] > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected] > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/symfony-users?hl=en > -- If you want to report a vulnerability issue on symfony, please send it to security at symfony-project.com You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony users" group.
