Book DescriptionThis book will get you started with the latest benchmarking, profiling and monitoring tools for PHP, MySQL and JavaScript using Docker-based technologies. From optimizing PHP 7 code to learning asynchronous programming, from implementing Modern SQL solutions to discovering Functional JavaScript techniques, this book covers all the latest developments in Faster Web technologies. You will not only learn to determine the best optimization strategies, but also how to implement them.
Along the way, you will learn how to profile your PHP scripts with Blackfire.io, monitor your Web applications, measure database performance, optimize SQL queries, explore Functional JavaScript, boost Web server performance in general and optimize applications when there is nothing left to optimize by going beyond performance.
After reading this book, you will know how to boost the performance of any Web application and make it part of what has come to be known as the Faster Web.
What you will learn
Install, confgure, and use profling and benchmarking testing tools
Understand how to recognize optimizable data structures and functions to effectively optimize a PHP7 application
Diagnose bad SQL query performance and discover ways to optimize it
Grasp modern SQL techniques to optimize complex SQL queries
Identify and simplify overly complex JavaScript code
Explore and implement UI design principles that effectively enhance the performance
