⚙ Full Stack
PHP application (Symfony-based components) requiring MySQL/MariaDB, with a tracking JS pixel, archiving cron jobs, and an extensive plugin marketplace. Reporting relies on pre-aggregated archive tables that must be periodically recomputed.
📈 Scaling Analysis
Read/write traffic scales reasonably with MySQL tuning and multiple PHP-FPM workers, but the archiving process is CPU-intensive and single-threaded by default, becoming a real bottleneck on high-traffic sites unless distributed archiving is configured.
🚀 Running on Nexlayer
Deploy as an app pod plus a mysql pod (mysql.pod:3306); the archiving cron needs to run as a scheduled job or sidecar hitting the same DB. Mirror the official PHP/Apache image via mirror.gcr.io and mount a persistent volume for config and plugin data.
