Zend previously announced its Blueprint for Continuous Delivery, which outlines best practices for bringing applications rapidly from code to production. The blueprint, built on the Zend Server platform, integrates all necessary processes – from Continuous Integration to automating a company's infrastructure and application release process – and helps create a foundation of collaboration between the development and operations teams.

Zend's Blueprint for Continuous Delivery includes a pattern for infrastructure automation with Chef, an automation platform that models IT infrastructure and application delivery as code. The Zend Pattern, which maintains a consistent highly available environment for application deployment and operation, is presented as a Chef cookbook that automates the installation, bootstrapping and cluster management of PHP applications leveraging Zend Server.

The Zend Blueprint for Continuous Delivery and information on the Chef Recipe can be found at www.zend.com/continuousdelivery

Zend's presentations at ChefConf will cover automatically deploying PHP applications from development into staging and production environments, setting up a PHP development environment, and creating a reusable wrapper Cookbook for later use.
