How to Make Your Enterprise Systems Twice as Effective When doing custom integrations there are a number of questions to ask and planning is crucial. Custom integration projects can quickly become nightmares if the proper steps are not taken prior to laying any code. We love taking on these challenges here at Achieve, and we always approach them with the same strategy that ensures these projects result in successful deployments.

Does Features make you want to break your guitar? Do you wonder why that #$!@ feature won’t revert? Think you should put all your stuff in one huge feature and just hope for the best?

Give up amature hour! Understand and architect your features like a rock star (with more cowbell)!!

Beacuase many folks could really use a nice introduction to how it's done at the command line, we'll take a more gentle tour of using git without visual UI for git newbies and for those who've been subsisting at the UI forever and would like to learn how to use the cli commands. 

Drush site aliases are way cool, aren't they?  Simple, defined arrays of information about each site and vertical (dev-stage-prod) that you maintain.  But it can be a little intimidating setting up your first set, so we'll start by taking a basic look at setting up a basic array of site aliases for the newbie and mirror how they would reflect on one another in a multi-environment setup.  

Working in teams is always a challenge. Have you ever had situation when all your team members commit to master branch and right before the release someone accidentally does commit that breaks everything? Or someone haven't finished his feature within the deadline and it holds the release? If yes -- this session is for you as we will talk about how to avoid these situations using feature branch development.
 
Development of real life projects on multiple platforms can be very very painful. In our teams we have people who work on MacOS, Linux, Windows and setting up environments for different projects is not easy thing to do. Specially when everyone needs specific PHP versions, memcache, apache solr, varnish etc.
 
But there are tools to solve this problems. One of most promiment is Vagrant. It allows to spin local virtual machine with same settings on different platforms.
 
Stop guessing about why your site isn't meeting performance goals. XHProf is the tool that can tell you precisely where time is spent generating a page so that you can focus on surgically targeted fixes rather than taking shots in the dark. But how should you navigate its complex UI and turn that pile of data into actionable recommendations to improve site performance?
This session demystifies XHProf with a mix of conceptual grounding and hands-on exploration.
 
This session will cover:
