phpmiko VS woocommerce-custom-orders-table

Not intended as a plug but you can even use php for network automation. I cobbled this together:

https://github.com/epiecs/phpmiko for connecting to devices and https://github.com/epiecs/mikodo for inventories and concurrency

The multi core coroutines comment is true but there are ways (to hack) around that.

The way I solved concurrency is just by forking and using sockets:

If you want that functionality right now you can use https://github.com/liquidweb/woocommerce-custom-orders-table I've used it multiple times, and have never had problems. There actually is a good chance custom tables could land in WooCommerce this year as all they have to do is integrate that plugin into WooCommerce. The plugin has already gotten heavy use on many big websites, and I know that the WooCommerce team knows about the plugin's existence.

I just want to preface this with a "Tread carefully" - but this might be worth keeping an eye on: https://github.com/liquidweb/woocommerce-custom-orders-table

WooCommerce also has a severe limitation right now, and that's that the orders are still currently a custom post type, and the postmeta table grows to millions of records, eventually slowing down the site. If your site is going to be processing a large quantity of orders, you might be able to use something like this: https://github.com/liquidweb/woocommerce-custom-orders-table , but you should at least be aware of this problem now.
