Need to change something ?

A. Ask 400 peopleB. Read all the code, understand everything then notify everyone

C. Break everythingD. Add a dirty “if” for your specific caseD. Add a dirty “if” for your specific case

Spaghetti + Quality Approach=

J’ai de la chance

What Was Our Development Env?

• Locked Files System• 1 Database for all Developers• No Automated Tests

• 1 release every 2 weeks• 50 projects by release• 1 button !

What Was Our Quality Approach?

Who wants to play?

Illustration: mailchimp • mailchimp.com

When it works…

…and when it fails!

New Talent + Innovation Need

=New Architecture

Target

All Clients are born equal in dignity and rights1

SOA architecture

Prevents code duplicationMutualize features Web Services

But this single, centralized webservice will still be huge and complex ?

Too long…

All Web Services have a single responsibility

Message Photos Profile Search

Strict REST API

profiles messages

GET /profiles/xxxxPUT /profiles/xxxx

GET /messages/xxxxPOST /messages

profiles messages

Do not share your data

Inside Business services

Symfony serialization for JSON input / output

Business Logic

Cache Layer

Doctrine DBAL

Controller

Service

Proxy Cache

Online Photos Profile Rights Search Boost

That means clients should make several calls to display a single page?

Too long…

But from client point of view

Separation of concerns

Inside Exposure Layer

Use Guzzle with batch calls

FOS\RESTBundle

Orchestrate API callsAssemble results from APIs

API Client

Android application

Example to display a list of members

GET /members

Get a list of user ids using Location search

Fetch user data

Exposure Layer

Configuration:

group B

uses location search

AB Tests Search Profile

user is from group B

Product Centric

• Kept a good Knowledge

• Share Product Vision

• Share a same vocable

Behavior Driven Development

Testing Strategy: Behavior Test

Android application

GET /members

Exposure Layer

AB Tests Search Profile

Given I am a user of the B groupAnd my geoloc position is ParisWhen I launch a search on the onlineThen I see a list of profileAnd the first profiles are near of my position

Docker Focus

• Allow the dev to automated testing all technical stack

• 50 instances to launch in parallel

• Different scope and context for the automated tests

Docker Focus: How to?
