Symfony's profiler

After learning Symfony’s Form component, I’d rather not go without it again. It makes it trivial to render an accessible form that can be re-used in several places, validating the form upon submit and then populating a PHP object from the form data safely.
在学了Symfony的表单组建之后，我宁可没有它，在一些地方重用可访问表单，验证表单提交，通过表单安全的填充PHP对象，这使他它变得微不足道

$user = $this->getUser();
$form = $this->createForm(UserBillingInfoType::class, $user)
             ->handleRequest($request);

if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
    // $user is already populated with the form values at this point
    // it's valid, so we can update the database and redirect the user now
}

Doctrine is another piece of software that really improved our overall application. Your models (entities) are normal PHP classes and relations (associations) are normal references, making it easy to test your domain logic without having to worry about the database implementation.

Doctrine确实可以整体改进我们的应用的一款软件，你的Models（实体）也都是PHP普通的类 关系（关联）也是正常的引用，使得测试你域名下的逻辑变得非常简单，不用担心数据实现。

$user = new User();
$user->addLicense(new License());
$manager->persist($user); // both user and its license will be saved

In Doctrine all operations are wrapped in a SQL transaction by default. That’s a big plus for me as it guarantees atomicity, which involved more work to get right in Eloquent.
在Doctrine里，所有操作都被默认包裹在SQL事物中，这对我来说是一个大的好处， 它保证了原子性，这涉及到更多的工作才能在Eloquent中得到正确的东西

Go is (still) great

Go （仍然）很棒

Honestly, Go is great. Its simplicity is refreshing and you can’t get anywhere near that kind of performance using PHP ¹. I would still pick it if we need a small API or something that requires high throughput.
老实说，Go很棒，它的简洁让人很清爽，你用PHP无法达到Go但性能，当我们需要一个小的API或者高吞吐量的时候我仍然会选择Go

Our shops however are more monolithic with a lot of server-side rendering. While that’s certainly doable in Go (as the last 2 years proved), it’s more maintainable for us to do it in PHP right now.
然而，我们的应用功能比较单一，有很多服务器渲染。虽然在Go中确实可行（两年的时间证明），我们现在可以用php来维护他

Side note: without the experience gained from our years on Go, I probably wouldn't have started Fathom Analytics. So perhaps it wasn't such a bad business decision after all?
注释:如果没有我们这么些年对Go的使用经验，我不太愿意开始使用Fathom Analytics。大概它不是一个错误的商业决定？

Making the correct business decision

做一个正确的决定

One reason not mentioned so far is that over the last year or so, I’ve been approached by several companies interested to take over one of our products.
还一个原因到现在还没提到，这些年来，我接触的一些公司对接管我们的产品很有兴趣

They were a little surprised to hear our stack involved Golang and some flat out told us they’d prefer PHP, because that’s what most of our products (mc4wp.com, boxzillaplugin.com and htmlforms.io) rely upon. And I don’t blame them.
当他们知道我们的技术栈是Golang的时候有些惊讶，他们更喜欢PHP，因为这是我们大多数产品的依靠，我并不怪他们

¹ Just for fun, I compared apples and oranges again by benchmarking the login page (which doesn't hit any database) for both application versions using Siege.
为了好玩，我通过使用Siege对两个版本的应用的登陆页面（没有命中任何数据库）进行基准测试，我又一次对橘子和苹果进行了比较

The Symfony application (PHP 7.3, OPcache enabled, optimized autoloader) handles about 1470 req/s. The Go application (compiled using Go v1.11) averages about 18600 req/s.
