Issue 04.05 of PHP Magazine just hit newsstands all over Europe with my article about Farming PHP on the cover. My preview of the subject generated considerable interest from the community, making me realize what an important and far-reaching topic this really is. If you are serious about running PHP in high-traffic, business-critical situations, I highly recommend picking up a copy or better yet subscribing. This issue looks packed with interesting topics, including MySQL clustering (a great companion to my “Farming” article) and some fascinating work by Harvard graduate students to write speech recognition software entirely in PHP.
