PSR-6 & Symfony Cache: fast by standards

After several months of discussion, the PHP-FIG (PHP Framework Interop Group) published the PSR-6. Its goal is to enable interoperability between caching systems implementations - a mandatory aspect to improve performance in your applications. At this conference, we will see the benefits and limitations of PSR-6, we will discuss the various existing cache solutions (Doctrine, Stash, php-cache), and I will present the Symfony 3.1 Cache component and its latest improvements in version 3.2.

7. PSR-6 Caching Interface Draft: Sept. 2013 Final: Dec. 2015
8. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas • A common interface for basic and intermediate-level caching needs. • Allow for multiple independent extensions without collision. PSR-6 Goals
9. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas • Compatibility with all existing cache implementations. • Advanced caching features such as namespacing or tagging. PSR-6 Non-Goals

14. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas PSR-6 Example #2
15. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas • getItem is the only standardized item factory • Keys cannot use reserved chars • false is returned on backend-errors • Atomicity/transactions/laziness is unspecified • Cache items are not interoperable PSR-6 Edge-cases
16. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas • See on Packagist https://packagist.org/providers/psr/cache-implementation • Stash PHP – stashphp.com • PHP Cache – php-cache.com • and … PSR-6 Implementations
17. Symfony Cache 3.1 What else?
18. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas • Be the most powerful PHP caching library • A strict PSR-6 implementation • Following Symfony’s quality processes* • Just the bare minimum to be fast by default * thank you Tobias for "cache/integration-tests“! Symfony Cache Goals in 3.1
19. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas • ApcuAdapter • ArrayAdapter • FilesystemAdapter • RedisAdapter • …it’s up to you to add more Base Symfony Cache Adapters
20. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas • AbstractAdapter • ChainAdapter • DoctrineAdapter • ProxyAdapter • + DoctrineProvider Special Symfony Cache Adapters
21. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas Doctrine 834.863 items/ms PHP Cache 313.334 items/ms Stash PHP 55.346 items/ms Symfony 533.366 items/ms Bench Symfony Cache - APCu
22. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas Doctrine 705.001 items/ms PHP Cache 362.477 items/ms Stash PHP 153.803 items/ms Symfony 845.910 items/ms Bench Symfony Cache - APCu
23. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas Doctrine 34.061 items/ms Symfony 478.910 items/ms Bench Symfony Cache - Redis
24. Symfony Framework Wiring
25. $container->get('cache.app') or @cache.app in yml
26. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas framework: cache: pools: my_app.cache.geodata => @my_app.cache.geodata in services.yml app/config/config.yml
27. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas framework: cache: pools: my_app.cache.geodata public: true => $container->get('my_app.cache.geodata‘) app/config/config.yml
28. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas framework: cache: pools: my_app.cache.geodata adapter: cache.adapter.redis app/config/config_prod.yml
29. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas framework: cache: app: cache.adapter.redis app/config/config_prod.yml
30. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas • « cache.app » for model-sourced items o Defaults to filesystem, change it to Redis • « cache.system » for code-sourced items o Defaults to APCu+filesystem chain Existing Cache Pool Services
31. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas services: geocoder.doctrine_cache: class: Symfony\Component\Cache\DoctrineProvider arguments: - '@my_app.cache.geodata' app/config/services.yml
32. Symfony Cache 3.2 PSR-6 and beyond
33. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas ./bin/console cache:pool:clear my_app.geocoder.cache New in Symfony 3.2
34. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas • PdoAdapter works for Doctrine DBAL • PhpArrayAdapter one big PHP 7 static array in shm • PhpFileAdapter many small PHP 7 static array in shm • NullAdapter pro-tip: item factory for any Symfony adapters New in Symfony 3.2
35. #SymfonyCon @nicolasgrekas • cache.system = PHP7 array > APCu > files • Offline cache warm-ups for derived cache.validator/serializer/annotations Note: APCu warmup & reset handled properly New in Symfony 3.2
