Joanna Carmony: Best Accounting Practices for the Web Development Industry

Come and learn from an accountant with years of experience what you should be doing better with your books. There should be something for everyone, whether you own a web development business, own a business that does some web development, are self-employed, or just do some freelance on the side.

As time allows, we’ll have a round-table discussion to take advantage of the collective expertise in the group on the subject, and discuss any questions you may have about the business side of web development.

As usual, we’ll be having our after-party at the Draper Applebees, starting around 9pm. Feel free to join us!

What is great about Redis is just how fast it is. In order to achieve its outstanding performance, Redis works with an in-memory dataset. Depending on your use case, you can persist it either by dumping the dataset to disk every once in a while, or by appending each command to a log.

So come down and learn the basics of Redis, whether using it as an advanced cache alternative to Memcached, a queueing system, a data store, or anything where you would benefit from high performance reads and writes.

As the hype around the “cloud” continues to grow, the importance of understanding how it works becomes more and more relevant. This presentation will provide an overview of how an application should be designed to ensure that it can scale well. The presentation will start with an explanation of how some cloud services work followed by things to consider when designing your application to up scale. We’ll finish the presentation (time pending) with a demonstration of a cloud driven work flow and end with a Q/A period.

The presentation will be given with the assumption that the people listening are familiar with PHP development, along with version control systems.

They have been getting mail through us for years, but its not working well. Our mail flows through an Exim server (WHM), and there’s no whitelisting, and I don’t think we even use SPF or DKIM. We can set all that up, but I’m not sure it will help. They might just need a 3rd party email service provider….

I’m thinking of recommending google apps, but I think it’s far more than they are willing to spend ($2500 per month unless they offer a volume discount). Fusemail and Fastmail seem to have potential, but I don’t know anything about them (it looks like either would cost a few hundred per month or a few thousand per year).

Can anyone recommend a solution here? Setting up a Zimbra or Postfix server are probably not options because we don’t have a sysadmin, and I’m too busy writing software for clients to spend time on something like that… I’m basically looking for a cheap, but reliable email service provider…

Whether you have one or a million visitors accessing your web app, they are all going to demand a great user experience regardless of what it takes for you to deliver it. This invariably means quick page loads and fast response times every single time. When things go south, you just throw more hardware at the problem and increase your caches and buffers, right? Wrong. Toss in an infrastructure that resides on the cloud and now you’ve got a really interesting problem on your hands. I’ll leave the marketecure slides at the door, this is a hands-on technical talk in which we’ll deploy an application to the cloud and then turn up the heat by leveraging the right mix of elasticity and auto-sclaing.

Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [HTTP] Unable to parse URL in D:\xampp\htdocs\Johansans Guides\client.php:11 Stack trace: #0 [internal function]: SoapClient->__doRequest(‘__soapCall(‘helloWorld’, Array) #2 {main} thrown in D:\xampp\htdocs\Johansans Guides\client.php on line 11

the server code is

“urn://http:/www.wstutorial.com/”));
$server->addFunction(“helloWorld”);
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == “POST”)
{
$server->handle();
}
else

{
echo “This SOAP Server Example can handle following functions:”;

$functions = $server->getFunctions();

foreach($functions as $func) {
echo $func ;
}
}

function helloWorld($buddy) {
return “Welcome to the world, ” . $buddy . “!”;
}

?>

While the client side code is

“localhost/Johansans Guides/soapserver1.php?WSDL”,
‘uri’ => “urn://www.wstutorial.com/”,
‘trace’ => 1 ));

$return = $client->__soapCall(“helloWorld”,array(“Tommy”));
echo $return;
?>

I am just wondering as what the problem may be can someone please help me. I haven’t created any wsdl file for the server at all.
