Spryker, an architecture for the web

Built on decades of experience, Spryker is a modern PHP e-commerce platform built with performance and extensibility as its core concerns on top of parts of the Symfony component library. The result is a very highly performant and customisable platform that’s really worth exploring. This talk will dive into its architecture and how each of the components co-exist, as well as look under the hood at what makes Spryker a great choice for a successful e-commerce project.

7. Layered System

9. nginx php-fpm postgres redis
10. Cache Stampede
12. Load test • 5,000 to 10,000 RPM on a single Performance L dyno (14GB RAM, 8 CPU cores, AWS). • Recommend 3 for availability. • Scales linearly.
14. Yves nginx php-fpm elasticsearch redis Zed
15. Zed nginx php-fpm elasticsearch postgres Yves redis
16. Cache front-end application cache back-end application data
17. –Phil Karlton “There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation and naming things.”
19. YVES
20. Controllers • Entry point to system for front end users • Controllers and actions • Twig templates / javascript / css
21. Yves Client(s) • Provide access to • Storage (redis) • Search (elasticsearch) • Zed
22. Performance • Zed - 50 to 500ms per request • Search - 1 to 10ms per request • Redis - 0.1 to 1ms per get()
23. Transfer Objects • Simple data containers • Standardised way to access data and get expressive method signatures. • Available everywhere • Defined in XML
24. <?xml version="1.0"?> <transfers xmlns="spryker:transfer-01" xmlns:xsi=“[..snip..]” xsi:schemaLocation=“[..snip..]”> <transfer name="Customer"> <property name="email" type="string"/> <property name="firstName" type="string"/> <property name="lastName" type="string"/> </transfer> </transfers>
25. <?php $customerTransfer = new CustomerTransfer(); $customerTransfer ->setEmail(‘ben@php.net’) ->setFirstName('Ben') ->setLastName('Longden'); echo $customerTransfer->getFirstName();
26. ZED
27. Zed • Presentation Layer • Communication Layer • Business Layer • Persistence Layer
28. Communication Layer • Controllers • Plugins
29. Communication getFacade() Business
30. Business Layer (Facade) • extends Spryker\Zed\Kernel\Business\AbstractFacade • protected getFactory()
31. Business getQueryContainer() Persistence
32. Persistence Layer • Propel ORM • MySQL or PostgreSQL supported
33. Dependency Provider • Every bundle has a DependencyProvider • Pimple
34. Sounds like a lot of classes…
35. Opinionated
36. – Clean Code (Robert C Martin) “Even bad code can function. But if code isn't clean, it can bring a development organization to its knees. Every year, countless hours and significant resources are lost because of poorly written code.”
37. Zed State Machine • States • Events • Transitions
38. <process name="Example01" main="true"> <states> <state name="new" reserved=“true”/> <state name="waiting for payment”/> </states> </states> <events> <event name="authorize" onEnter="true" manual="true"/> </events> <transitions> <transition happy="true"> <source>new</source> <target>waiting for payment</target> <event>authorize</event> </transition> </transitions>
39. Easy to extend
40. Fun to work with
