PHP Development To Actually Scale Up
The majority of PHP projects begin tiny and, well, stay modest after that. Or they shatter. Too often, developers create something that functions well for a small number of people but breaks down when actual traffic arrives.
Why Noob PHP Will Always Fail?
We are not meant to be cruel here. There is a reason, however, why so many PHP initiatives wind up creating hassles rather than resolving issues.
Performance Errors
It is likely that your database queries are exploding right now. Developers who believe that increasing server power would solve all problems are something we frequently witness. However, no amount of RAM will help you if you are hitting the database fifty times each page load. Those N+1 questions? Your users are noticing that they are causing your response times to deteriorate.
Dangerous Security Gaps
The problem with security is that you do not realize what you do not know until someone takes advantage of it. Like open doors, SQL injection risks are present. input from users that is never thoroughly cleaned. In essence, session management is wishful thinking. Passwords for projects we inherited were kept in plain text. 2024. It occurs more often than you may imagine.
Nonstop Server Maintenance
Does not your server continuously go down around two in the morning? Apache must be restarted every few hours due to memory leaks. Your disk space is filled with error logs since no one thought to rotate them. dependencies that malfunction when you attempt to make any changes. We understand how draining it is to manage infrastructure that challenges you at every turn.
Difficult To Scale
Your program should not malfunction as you add new users. But because the programming was not designed to manage expansion, here you are, watching as everything slows to a crawl. There was no database optimization, no cache layer, and no consideration of how this system would function under real-world stress. Scaling becomes an intractable riddle where each solution leads to two more issues.
Workflow Breaking Integrations
Randomly timeout third-party APIs. processors for payments that silently malfunction. Email systems that lose messages in production yet function flawlessly in testing. Code for integration is so interdependent that altering one component disrupts three others. Because these connections were not adequately prepared for, we have seen teams spend weeks addressing what should have been a straightforward API change.
More Frequent Updates
With your codebase, every update is like playing Russian roulette. WordPress upgrades that cause plugins to malfunction. Deprecated functions are exposed everywhere in PHP version upgrades. modifications to the framework that need rebuilding half of your application. Because each fix is more costly than the previous, the technical debt continues mounting until you are spending more time maintaining than creating.
Start Building Your Future
You do not need to continue battling the same issues. Perhaps it is time to create something that genuinely functions the way you require it to.

How Orca Visualize Its Development
One-size-fits-all development is not something we support. Although each job is done differently, we consistently concentrate on a few key areas. Our approach to creating software that genuinely functions over the long run is shaped by these five areas.
Speed
Your users are not going to wait. We do not develop with performance as an afterthought when things slow down; rather, we do it from the beginning.
Security
Hackers never take a vacation. Since they most likely are, we create code thinking that someone is attempting to break in. It is better to be safe than sorry.
Scale
Your application should not be broken by growth. Even when you do not know how large this thing will go, we prepare for success.
Support
Things shatter sometimes. You need someone who is well-versed in your system when they do. We remain for the long term.
Strategy
It is not enough to write code that works today. We consider the direction your company is taking and adjust our construction accordingly.
Client Collaboration Priority
Your feedback guides our work, helping us deliver exactly what your business needs.

Frequent Asked Question
Carefully and slowly. We evaluate what should be rebuilt from the ground up, what needs to be fixed, and what is worth maintaining.
Yes, we remain. The majority of issues arise after launch, and we would rather address them than keep you in the dark.
First, we measure everything. Since you can see where the bottlenecks are, there is little need in speculating about what is sluggish.
Of course. Our goal is to assist your team in creating better products and maybe learning from one another, not to replace them.
We test everything and adhere to specified criteria. Security is integrated from the beginning and cannot be added later.
We are open about estimates, although it depends on intricacy. The majority of initiatives, including ours, take longer than anticipated.
In most cases, yes. We have experience with the majority of databases and APIs. We should be able to connect to it if it has documentation.
We keep an eye on you, correct issues, and support your growth. In actuality, launch day is only the start of the hard effort.
