This afternoon, Fathima Nazeeha Asmat and David Bishop, presented their session, "Turbocharging Membership Registration: Asynchronous Solutions with ReactPHP." at DrupalCon Europe . They spoke about how they addressed a significant challenge faced by one of our clients: a slow membership registration process that resulted in frustrating 45-second wait times due to lengthy calls from an integrated enterprise CRM via middleware. Fathima and David shared how they employed ReactPHP to implement asynchronous solutions, effectively offloading those long-running processes to separate services. This not only improved page load times but also enhanced the overall user experience. Here are some key insights from their talk: 🔍 Navigating the architectural challenges of slow CRM and middleware integration. ⚡️ The crucial role of ReactPHP in processing long-running calls asynchronously. 💥 Insights gained from stress testing our solution with BlazeMeter, including the discovery of API limits within the underlying enterprise software. Their session provided valuable takeaways for anyone looking to optimise user experience with innovative solutions. Feel free to check out the photos from their talk and connect with us if you’re interested in learning more about our solutions.
