kubeplus VS bref

We went through this migration/upgrade in our KubePlus project (https://github.com/cloud-ark/kubeplus). It has an embedded webhook in it, fyi.

You might want to check out - KubePlus (https://github.com/cloud-ark/kubeplus), which has already been referenced in the thread and is exactly designed for building managed application services. I am the originator and core contributor to this project. KubePlus is a Kubernetes Operator that takes an application Helm chart and represents it as a Kubernetes API (CRD) on the cluster. This API allows you to create instances of the application in separate namespaces automatically ensuring a secure perimeter around each instance using NetworkPolicy, Resource Quota, and RBAC. These soft multi-tenancy measures are already mentioned in the thread along with the namespace. KubePlus has automated all of them for you under an API. This API not only allows the creation of the application instances but also supports day-2 operations such as monitoring, troubleshooting, and upgrades to simplify the end-to-end functioning of any managed application service. We are currently seeing interest from teams that want to create managed services for different types of containerized applications, including open-source platforms such as WordPress, Moodle, Ozone/OpenMRS, AI/ML workloads, etc. KubePlus has been tested successfully with all (90+) Bitnami Helm charts. For anyone who wants to deliver a managed application with minimal / no Kubernetes access to their customers, KubePlus can help by accelerating the implementation of namespace-based multi-tenancy on Kubernetes. With the ability to set NetworkPolicy and Resource Quota per application instance, the blast radius is restricted, if something goes wrong in an application instance. KubePlus does not need admin permissions on your cluster. This makes it possible to use KubePlus to manage your application instances on your customer's cluster as well.

We have an FAQ about Operators here: https://github.com/cloud-ark/kubeplus/blob/master/Operator-F...

It should be helpful if you are new to the Operator concept.

Operators are generally useful for handling domain-specific actions - for example, performing database backups, installing plugins on Moodle/Wordpress, etc. If you are looking for application deployment then a Helm chart should be sufficient.

If you are currently delivering your SaaS as a separate instance of your application per customer, you might want to check out our open-source project KubePlus - https://github.com/cloud-ark/kubeplus

A more commerical offering is from Cloudark who have designed a specific solution for operating your Helm application as a SaaS offering. I have never used it (ArgoCD being my poison) but you might find it fits your usecase better

As part of your data platform are you planning to create a separate instance of the database for your end customer? If so, you might find our KubePlus Operator helpful. Check it out here: https://github.com/cloud-ark/kubeplus

We have been helping organizations build such multi-instance multi-tenant cloud-native applications. We start with an application Helm chart and create separate release of it per customer/user of that organization. We have an open source Kubernetes Operator that aids in this: https://github.com/cloud-ark/kubeplus

The project that is getting some traction recently is our KubePlus Operator that delivers Helm charts as-a-service: https://github.com/cloud-ark/kubeplus

I have just released the first working version of a symfony starter project using bref.sh.

As you can see on the website (https://bref.sh/) there's 13 billion monthly AWS Lambda invocations using Bref (PHP).

I have a PHP application (running on Amazon Linux via Bref on Lambda) which has been signing Apple passbooks no problem. I've trying to do various upgrades which includes moving to AWS Linux 2023 which uses OpenSSL 3.

Your best bet is to post an issue on https://github.com/brefphp/bref

multi threading php isnt a burden. laravel with a supervisor + redis + queues works out-of-the-box. you can even run it on lambda (vapor or bref.sh) with almost no hassle.

To generate resource on AWS, you can use aws-sdk into a lambda. While Node or Python is more widely used, you can use PHP bref.sh and the PHP AWS SDK to achieve the same outcome. You'll want to use serverless framework (https://www.serverless.com) .

If you’re deploying in AWS and depending on your app I’d highly recommend using https://bref.sh/. When we changed it made our deploy pipeline so much simpler and our AWS bill much cheaper. Plus infrastructure as code is so useful (we don’t have dedicated dev ops in a team of about 20). Things like adding GD, upgrading PHP, or even adding a redis server become 1 (or a few) lines of change which you can PR and test on staging just like other code changes.

For Lambda, look into https://bref.sh/. For us, running on Lambda was always way cheaper than everything else. However, if you have massive scale that calculation may not hold up.

There's a lot to unpack here from your question. First off, PHP on Lambda WITHOUT docker is possible. Check out https://bref.sh. It works by providing PHP on Lambda like any other runtime. It also provides a Web Hosting experience for PHP on Lambda for those that want to run PHP-FPM.

Failing that, looks like Bref will be the option in place of Vapor.
