Scaling LAMP doesn't have to suck
Sebastian Grodzicki CTO @ GoldenLine ~100 req/s ~4.7M UU
#DevOps
LAMP • Linux • Apache • MySQL • PHP
Scaling LAMP • shared hosting • VPS • dedicated server
Scaling LAMP • split LAMP into LM + LAP •
use virtual machines or Docker • forget 127.0.0.1 (AKA localhost) • forget about local storage
A better LAMP • Linux (tuned) • Apache Nginx •
MySQL Percona Server • PHP PHP-FPM • Redis • Resque
Linux (tuned) • Linux is mostly sane • use latest
kernel • distribution doesn’t matter • (I like Debian)
Tune Linux • open_files • network/sysctl • i/o scheduler
Linux: open_files • default: 1024 (ulimit -n) • soft nofile
999999 • hard nofile 999999
Linux: sysctl • net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65535 • net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle =
1 • net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1 • net.core.somaxconn = 999999 (default: 128)
Linux: i/o scheduler • $ cat /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler noop deadline [cfq]
• $ echo deadline > /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler • $ cat /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler noop [deadline] cfq
Nginx • open-source HTTP server • swap out Apache •
easy + sane config
Nginx 21k req/s @ 10% CPU & 160 MB RAM
Nginx • load balancer • reverse proxy • content caching
• streaming media • web server
Percona Server • open source MySQL fork • patches from
Twitter and Google • drop-in MySQL replacement • faster at scale, more reliable
MySQL vs Percona new transactions per minute
Percona Server • only use InnoDB (XtraDB) • disable query
cache • enable thread pool
PHP-FPM • standard with PHP 5.3+ • daemonization & process
management • used by Rasmus Lerdord (author of PHP)
PHP-FPM • pm = static • pm.max_children = {{ CPU
cores * 4 }} • pm.max_children = 32 # 8c/16t • pm.max_children = 64 # 16c/32t • pm.max_children = 80 # 20c/40t
PHP-FPM • 5.6 is faster than 5.5 • 5.5 is
faster than 5.4 • 5.4 is faster than 5.3 • 5.6 is much faster than 5.3
PHP-FPM • 5.6: OPcache • 5.5: OPcache • 5.4: APC
• 5.3: APC
Redis • key-value cache & store • >= Memcached •
optional persistence & hot cache • clients for almost every language • use phpredis (the C extension)
Resque • open source library • made by GitHub •
ported to PHP (php-reque) • uses Redis
Load Balancer A Load Balancer B App 1 App 2
App 3 App N DB 1 DB 2 DB N Redis 1 Redis 2 Redis N DNS
