DoctrineExtensions VS Real-Time monitoring package for Laravel

In the world of software development, there are two kinds of developers: those who have never had to complain about ORMs and those who have actually used them. Whether it’s Django ORM for Python, Active Record for Ruby, GORM for Golang, Doctrine for PHP, or Prisma for TypeScript, a common issue persists: writing simple queries is straightforward, but constructing complex or optimized queries can take hours, if not days.

The language is not that important, if you know Php, you learn another one in weeks (not you, Rust!) important and source of income is the knowledge of Design patterns and for what implementation to use which specific Pattern. PHP have a great ecosystem regarding design patterns. As there are the psr. Mostly, the Frameworks implement these recommendations: - dependency injection in Symfony, yii and spiral - Data Mapper implemented in doctrine or in cycle-orm.

But: I do know how to filter and paginate 100 million rows under <20ms, in PHP and 1.7GHz laptop. I can do complex data exports at speeds of 15.000 rows per second, where each row takes data from about 5-8 DB tables, and all that using ORM (full entity mapping, the slowest possible way) and not vanilla SQL. And that data is saved sync (not async) to S3 so there is a slowdown that I totally forgot about which means processing is even faster.

Probably the best answer to your question is to use an established "ORM" (Object Relational Mapping). Doctrine ( https://www.doctrine-project.org/ ) is a very popular one. Those libraries have already solved many of the problems you're going to run into.

It is one of the bundles of Symfony, a powerful and flexible PHP framework, also requiring Doctrine ORM entities.

doctrine/* - packages from the Doctrine Project, largely but not exclusively related to working with databases doctrine/collections - utilities for working with arrays of data doctrine/dbal - a data*base **abstraction **l*ayer with support for MySQL, Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and SQLite databases doctrine/orm - the Doctrine ORM, a popular PHP ORM based on the Data Mapper pattern doctrine/migrations - utilities for database schema versioning (i.e. database migrations)

Symfony Security and Doctrine

ORM is the most known abstraction used to easy access and modify data against SQL databases. Laravel has Eloquent, Symfony has Doctrine, etc.

There are also good ORMs available for PHP. Eloquent and Doctrine come to mind.

Hi, I'm Valerio, founder and CTO at Inspector.

Today it may not be so easy to navigate the world of monitoring, probably because so many different data can be used in so many different ways. Now I’m the creator and CTO of Inspector, a monitoring platform used by developers in more than ten countries, so in this article I would share my experience working in the monitoring industry trying to help you better understand:

Inspector works with a lightweight software library that you can install in your application like any other dependencies. In case of Laravek you have our official Laravel package at your disposal. Developers are not always comfortable installing and configuring software at the server level, because these installations are out of the software development lifecycle, or are even managed by external teams.

Hi, I'm Valerio, CTO and founder at Inspector. In this article I would talk about the Repository Pattern and how we implemented it in our Laravel application to solve a scalability problem.
