Amazon Web Services for PHP Developers

Amazon Web Services and the AWS SDK for PHP continue to put more power into the hands of PHP developers to build robust and scalable web applications. With version 2 of the SDK, developers now have an even more powerful library for interacting with AWS built on top of existing open source software like the Guzzle HTTP framework and the Symfony 2 Event Dispatcher. In this session you will learn about Amazon Web Services, how to use the AWS SDK for PHP, and what AWS services you can use to deploy and scale your applications in the cloud.

1. Amazon Web Services for PHP Developers
2. Oh Hai! I'm Jeremy Lindblom! •  I work on the AWS SDK for PHP at •  Co-organizer of the Seattle PHP Meetup Group •  B.S. in Computer Science from •  @jeremeamia on •  I like to make funny faces
3. What is "The Cloud"?
4. Cloud computing is the acquisition and use of computing resources that are delivered as a service on an as-needed basis.
5. "The Cloud" •  Evolution of distributed computing and Service-oriented Architecture (SOA). •  Benefits – No upfront investment – Low ongoing cost – Flexible capacity – Speed & agility – Apps not ops – Global reach ( http://aws.amazon.com/what-is-cloud-computing/ )
7. Bringing you the “The Cloud” since 2006.
8. Amazon Web Services offers a complete set of infrastructure and application services that enable you to run virtually everything in the cloud: from enterprise applications and big data projects to social games and mobile apps. ( http://aws.amazon.com )

16. How do I use AWS?
17. AWS Console
18. AWS SDKs and Tools PHP • Java • Python • .NET Ruby • Node.js • iOS • Android SDKs Unified CLI • Visual Studio Plugin Eclipse Plugin • PowerShell Tools Tools
19. General SDK Features •  Suite of HTTP clients •  Input and output serialization •  Protocol normalization •  Authentication •  Error handling •  Language-specific conveniences •  Open source
20. The AWS SDK for PHP http://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-php
21. Quick History •  Tarzan (Started by @skyzyx) •  CloudFusion •  AWS SDK for PHP [2010] •  AWS SDK for PHP 2 [Late 2012]
22. AWS SDK for PHP Features •  PHP 5.3+, PSR compliant •  Persistent connections, parallel requests •  Event hooks, plugins, and wire logging •  Simple array-style inputs and outputs •  Iterators, waiters, and batching helpers •  Higher-level abstractions
23. require  'vendor/autoload.php';   use  Aws\S3\S3Client;     $s3  =  S3Client::factory(array(        'key'        =>  'your-­‐aws-­‐access-­‐key-­‐id',      'secret'  =>  'your-­‐aws-­‐secret-­‐key',   ));     $result  =  $s3-­‐>putObject(array(      'Bucket'  =>  'my-­‐cool-­‐photos',      'Key'        =>  'photo.jpg',      'Body'      =>  fopen('./photo.jpg',  'r')   ));  
24. Built on Guzzle •  Popular HTTP Library – Goutte – AWS SDK for PHP J – Drupal 8 •  Foundation of the SDK •  Symfony2 Events •  http://guzzlephp.org
25. Installing the PHP SDK •  Composer •  PEAR •  Downloadable Phar •  RPM/yum (on Amazon Linux)
26. Composer •  Dependency management •  Autoloader for project •  http://getcomposer.org
27. Installing via Composer In your composer.json file:   {      "require":  {          "aws/aws-­‐sdk-­‐php":  "2.*"      }   }   On the command line. php  composer.phar  install  
28. Concepts in the SDK •  Commands •  Modeled Results •  Iterators •  Waiters •  Events & Plugins •  High-level Abstractions
29. Commands •  Encapsulates an operation to AWS •  Contains Request and Response objects •  Allows you set and get parameters •  Returns modeled results
30. Commands - Shorthand $result  =  $s3-­‐>listObjects(array(      'Bucket'  =>  'my-­‐bucket-­‐name'   ));     echo  $result['Objects'][0]['Key'];  
31. $command  =  $s3-­‐>getCommand('ListObjects');   $command-­‐>set('Bucket',  'my-­‐bucket-­‐name');     $result  =  $command-­‐>getResult();   echo  $result['Contents'][0]['Key'];     $response  =  $command-­‐>getResponse();   echo  $response-­‐>getStatusCode();   echo  $response-­‐>getHeader('Content-­‐Length');     The Command Object
32. $c1  =  $s3-­‐>getCommand('PutObject',  array(      'Bucket'  =>  'my-­‐bucket-­‐name',      'Key'        =>  'my-­‐first-­‐key',      'Body'      =>  fopen('path/to/file1',  'r')   ));   $c2  =  $s3-­‐>getCommand('PutObject',  array(      'Bucket'  =>  'my-­‐bucket-­‐name',      'Key'        =>  'my-­‐second-­‐key',      'Body'      =>  fopen('path/to/file2',  'r')   ));     $s3-­‐>execute(array($c1,  $c2));   Parallel Commands
33. Modeled Results •  Array-like object •  Follows schema from service description •  Convenience methods like getPath()   $result  =  $s3-­‐>listBuckets();     $result['Buckets'][0]['Name'];   $result-­‐>get('Buckets');   $result-­‐>getPath('Buckets/0/Name');   $result-­‐>get('Buckets');   print_r($result-­‐>toArray());  
34. Waiters •  Poll resources until available •  Handle asynchronous and eventually consistent operations more easily $s3-­‐>createBucket(array(      'Bucket'  =>  'my-­‐bucket'   ));   $s3-­‐>waitUntilBucketExists(array(      'Bucket'  =>  'my-­‐bucket'   ));  
35. Iterators •  Iterate through entire result sets •  No handling of markers or tokens •  Uses SPL iterators and interfaces $list  =  $s3-­‐>getIterator('ListObjects',  [      'Bucket'  =>  'my-­‐bucket'   ]);   foreach  ($list  as  $object)  {      echo  $object['Key']  .  PHP_EOL;   }  
36. SDK 1.x – Before Iterators $dynamo_db  =  new  AmazonDynamoDB();   $start_key  =  null;   $people  =  array();       do  {      $params  =  array(          'TableName'  =>  'people',      );          if  ($start_key)  {        $params['ExclusiveStartKey']  =  array(            'HashKeyElement'  =>  array(                'S'  =>  $start_key            )        );        $start_key  =  null;    }      $response  =  $dynamo_db-­‐>scan($params);    if  ($response-­‐>isOK())  {        foreach  ($response-­‐>body-­‐>Items  as   $item)  {            echo  (string)  $item-­‐>name-­‐>S;        }                  if  ($response-­‐>body-­‐>LastEvaluatedKey)  {            $start_key  =  (string)  $response-­‐>body-­‐ >LastEvaluatedKey-­‐>HashKeyElement-­‐>S;        }      }  else  {                  throw  new  DynamoDB_Exception('DynamoDB   Scan  operation  failed.');    } }  while  ($start_key);
37. SDK 1.x – Before Iterators $dynamo_db  =  new  AmazonDynamoDB();   $start_key  =  null;   $people  =  array();       do  {      $params  =  array(          'TableName'  =>  'people',      );          if  ($start_key)  {        $params['ExclusiveStartKey']  =  array(            'HashKeyElement'  =>  array(                'S'  =>  $start_key            )        );        $start_key  =  null;    }      $response  =  $dynamo_db-­‐>scan($params);    if  ($response-­‐>isOK())  {        foreach  ($response-­‐>body-­‐>Items  as   $item)  {            echo  (string)  $item-­‐>name-­‐>S;        }                  if  ($response-­‐>body-­‐>LastEvaluatedKey)  {            $start_key  =  (string)  $response-­‐>body-­‐ >LastEvaluatedKey-­‐>HashKeyElement-­‐>S;        }      }  else  {                  throw  new  DynamoDB_Exception('DynamoDB   Scan  operation  failed.');    } }  while  ($start_key);
38. $db  =  $aws-­‐>get('DynamoDb');     $scan  =  $db-­‐>getIterator('Scan',  array(      'TableName'              =>  'People',      'AttributesToGet'  =>  array('Id',  'Name')   ));     foreach  ($scan  as  $person)  {      echo  $item['Name']['S'];   }     Example: Scan Iterator
40. Events & Event Listeners •  Event slots in various parts of SDK •  Inject logic without extending classes •  Symfony2 Event Dispatcher $s3-­‐>getEventDispatcher()        -­‐>addListener('<event>',  <fn>);  
41. Plugins •  Implemented as event listeners •  Many built-in plugins from Guzzle including easy wire logging use  Guzzle\Plugin\Log\LogPlugin;   $s3-­‐>addSubscriber(          LogPlugin::getDebugPlugin()   );  
42. Higher-level Abstractions •  S3 Multipart Uploader •  S3 Stream Wrapper •  DynamoDB Session Handler •  DynamoDB WriteRequestBatch •  SNS Message Validator •  Third-party Modules: ZF2, Silex, Laravel
43. $s3  =  $aws-­‐>get('S3');   $uploader  =  UploadBuilder::newInstance()      -­‐>setClient($s3)      -­‐>setSource('/path/to/large/file.mov')      -­‐>setBucket('my-­‐bucket')      -­‐>setKey('my-­‐object-­‐key')      -­‐>setConcurrency(3)      -­‐>build();   Multipart Uploader
