Switching the Profiler Storage

The profiler stores the collected data in the %kernel.cache_dir%/profiler/ directory. If you want to use another location to store the profiles, define the dsn option of the framework.profiler:

You can also create your own profile storage service implementing the ProfilerStorageInterface and overriding the profiler.storage service.
