What can PHP do for your business?

Database-driven applications

Read, update and display data from MySQL, PostgreSQL and MongoDB
Build custom data-entry screens, search tools and reports
Develop practical CRUD applications and dashboards

Integration and automation

Move data between databases and cloud services
Generate emails, files and reports automatically
Build custom user management and business workflows

PHP is a mature server-side programming language, widely used to build dynamic websites and web applications. It can handle far more than simply displaying information on a page.

Examples from our PHP work

Cloud MongoDB to MySQL data transfer

We used PHP to read data from a cloud-hosted MongoDB database and write it into MySQL. The project also involved installing and configuring the MongoDB PHP driver on a Linux cloud server. That combination of programming and systems administration is a familiar part of our work.

Geographic data and mapping

One project used PHP to gather and store prices in MySQL, then display geographically located markers on Google Maps. It also included custom user management and data grids.

Financial application

We also developed a more extensive PHP application for trading certificates of deposit (financial CDs), demonstrating how PHP can support a complete business application.

Lightweight database tools

Not every project needs a large framework. Straightforward applications can often be built efficiently with HTML, PHP and MySQL, with JavaScript added where it improves the experience.

PHP and server configuration

Writing the PHP code is only part of a successful deployment. We also work with Linux servers, PHP extensions, database drivers and Apache web server configuration. When a program fails because of its environment rather than its code, we can investigate both sides.

Technical example: querying MongoDB from PHP

The following shortened example illustrates the type of MongoDB driver code we have used. It is a historical example, adapted to remove connection credentials and old service details; it is not a complete ready-to-run application.

<?php
// Illustrative example: configure your connection securely.
$manager = new MongoDB\Driver\Manager($mongoUri);
$start = new MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime(
    (new DateTimeImmutable('2018-11-02'))->getTimestamp() * 1000
);
$end = new MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime(
    (new DateTimeImmutable('2019-06-01'))->getTimestamp() * 1000
);
$query = new MongoDB\Driver\Query([
    'date' => ['$gte' => $start, '$lte' => $end]
]);
$rows = $manager->executeQuery('example.logs', $query);
foreach ($rows as $row) {
    // Process each matching document.
}
?>
