Many organizations want the scalability, portability, and resilience promised by 12-factor PHP applications, but the path to getting there can seem overwhelming. You’re likely faced with complex architectural decisions, competing priorities, limited resources, and uncertainty about which components you should build yourself and which can be delegated to third parties.
The good news is that adopting 12-factor principles does not have to be an all-or-nothing initiative. By breaking the journey into manageable milestones, organizations can modernize incrementally, reduce operational complexity, and achieve meaningful improvements faster without disrupting ongoing development efforts.
About the Live Webinar
Join Zend Principal Product Manager Matthew Weier O’Phinney for a practical presentation on simplifying the adoption of 12-factor application principles through a phased, milestone-driven approach.
In this webinar, you'll learn:
- The basics of the 12-factor methodology and how to break adoption into achievable targets
- The trade-offs between Docker Compose and Kubernetes, and when each makes sense
- Which application and infrastructure components to build internally versus outsource
- How managed platforms, services, and automation can accelerate modernization efforts
- Open Q&A addressing your most pressing questions about 12-factor application adoption
Whether you're modernizing a legacy PHP application, planning a cloud-native strategy, or looking to simplify operations, this session will provide practical guidance to help your team achieve 12-factor outcomes faster and with greater confidence.
