SymfonyCon Vienna 2024: HTTP compression in Symfony apps
August 29, 2024 • Published by Eloïse Charrier
SymfonyCon Vienna 2024, our next annual international Symfony conference, will take place on:
- December 3 & 4: Two days of hands-on workshops to learn, practice, and enhance your skills in small groups.
- December 5 & 6: Three English-speaking tracks with over 35 outstanding speakers, an Unconference track, and a lively community evening.
🎤 New speaker announcement!
We are super happy to announce our next speaker: Kévin Dunglas (@dunglas), CEO, Les-Tilleuls.coop, will present the topic "HTTP compression in Symfony apps":
"Compressing HTTP responses can significantly improve the performance of your Symfony applications. But you still need to find your way through the jungle of standards and formats.
In this presentation, we'll discover how HTTP compression works, the different formats supported by modern web browsers (deflate, gzip, Brotli, and the brand new Zstandard), and how to use them correctly with Symfony.
We'll also look at which formats to compress, which not to, when to use dynamic compression, and when (and how) to pre-compress responses that can be compressed for even better performance."
