    I’m pleased to announce this month’s meeting topic is High availability with memcache.

He’s been working with PHP for over 4 years with most of that geared towards backend work. He loves designing database schemas, optimizing existing processes, and generally making slow things run fast. He currently work as a PHP Developer for a financial services company in Salt Lake City.

    PHP and Ecomm using Authorize.net 

    Travis, a former employee of Authorize.net, will be building his presentation from experience he has with input from current Authorize.net staff.

    He will be presenting on two main topics: coding to Authorize.net and the Business Aspects and opportunities of Authorize.net.

    Coding:

    SIM (Simple Integration Method) – where you calculate the totals and pass in the credit num, etc, info goes to an authorize.net domain
    AIM (Advanced Integration Method) — more hardcore, Authorize.net is totally masked, the entire transaction appears to be on your domain

    Business:

    What is merchant account
    What are requirements
    Info on how to be a reseller

    PHP and Ecommerce using Authorize.net
    With Travis Barney of Progrexion
    Thursday, January 17th, 7:00 pm @ Bill Good Marketing

    svnLogBrowser 

    This Thursday’s UPHPU meeting will be presented by Bryan Petty: svnLogBrowser.

    The presentation is on svnLogBrowser which provides a web-based frontend for browsing through commit logs from any Subversion repository, and is released under the GNU GPL. It gives developers a tool for quickly locating changes, reviewing peer developer’s commits, or just a general overview of what recent changes have been made to a project.

    The lecture will include:

    • install/config (brief)
    • techniques for searching and watching commits

    Bryan is a long time member of UPHPU who has worked on several well known projects including svnLogBrowser, wxWidgets development, and work on Phoenix Project Manager. He has also gone the past 7 years to volunteer at Defcon.
