Stepping into the future: Migrating & Deploying PHP7
summary
Migration targets PHP5 to PHP7 compatibility by showing concrete breakage examples (AST changes that flip evaluation order and stricter octal/removed modifiers), tools to catch them like run fan inside Docker which mounts code and outputs a report, concrete benchmarking with ApacheBench and JMeter that measures PHP5 vs PHP7 latency, monitoring with ELK and Weave Scope, packaging artifacts to S3/CDN or Docker registry, and zero‑downtime strategies using blue‑green or rolling updates plus GitHub Ghost for nonblocking MySQL migrations.
