flipt VS RoadRunner

We at https://flipt.io are putting on a buy vs build webinar in a couple of weeks to discuss this very thing as it's a common question that engineering teams seem to have.

If you're interested in attending its taking place on LinkedIn on April 17: https://www.linkedin.com/events/buildvs-buy-pickingafeaturef...

We're currently evaluating OPA for adding RBAC to our open-source application [0]. We plan on using the Go API [1] and doing the policy eval directly in our app since our app is also written in Go.

The thinking is we'll have some basic built-in policies (like admins can do X, editors can do Y, etc) but also allow users to configure their own policies if they want by writing rego and loading their policy rules at startup time (via config). We'd document the inputs that we pass to the evaluation call such as request headers, IP, role, etc.

I'm curious if anyone has ever tried something like this or similar?

At Flipt, we continually discuss technologies that can bring change to the industry. In this article, we delve into cutting-edge top trends and tools that can redefine DevOps and platform engineering this year.

In this article, I will share the DevOps tools that we've used at Flipt and in previous roles (such as at InfluxDB). These tools are relevant for any modern software project.

But after onboarding 50+ contributors to Flipt, I realized there are ways to make starts easy for newbies.

In this article, I will share the effort-based issue labeling system we use at Flipt to deal with this problem.

Flipt has reached 3k GitHub stars ⭐ this week.

In this article, I’m sharing 3 GitHub Actions we use at Flipt that saved us more than 500 developer hours.

FrankenPHP

why link to the old URL when linking to its redirected one is less confusing?

Don't follow any advice to use Apache as a reverse proxy, or bundle php with a classic web server.

There are real application servers using an event loop by now, most notably Roadrunner (https://roadrunner.dev), FrankenPHP (https://frankenphp.dev), Laravel Octane (https://laravel.com/docs/10.x/octane#introduction), Swoole Bridge for Symfony (https://github.com/insidestyles/swoole-bridge-bundle).

In general, you can do a lot with OpenSwoole or Roadrunner. They are vastly superior (in a container scenario) to any other suggestion in this thread!

https://roadrunner.dev which golang php application server which can replace nginx +php fpm has a module for running golang via php using sockets.

You could also use something like EventMachine (In ruby), Twisted (Python), Node (JS) or ReactPHP (for PHP) that will use the language and turn it into a web application server, and then you'll have only one long running process that handle all your requests with shared memory. You could even use something more fancy like RoadRunner in the case of PHP.

Have you considered optimizing the Laravel app? I love Go, but full rewrite for such low rate sounds overkill. Have you looked at the RoadRunner PHP application sample, for example?

Has state resetter for long-running workers serving multiple requests such as RoadRunner or Swoole.
