**Supercharging API Monitoring with Guzzle**
***with Liam Hammett***

Handling millions of API calls in production can be overwhelming.
Almost everyone in the PHP ecosystem uses Guzzle, so in this talk we’ll deep dive into using its underutilised middleware for efficient API monitoring.

We’ll dive into recording telemetry data using OpenTelemetry, observing it through Grafana with the help of Loki, Tempo and Prometheus. Drawing from my experience building an application that makes millions of API calls each week, you’ll leave with actionable insights to keep your microservices and third-party APIs stable under pressure.

**Interactive Session: Exploring JavaScript and PHP Integration**
***with Andy Burgess***

Join us for an interactive roundtable focused on the role of JavaScript in PHP development. Andy is currently working on projects combining PHP, MySQL, JavaScript and AJAX - bringing up key questions about best practices, security, and pitfalls when using JavaScript to connect the front-end with back-end databases.

Whether you’re experienced with JavaScript frameworks like Node.js, Angular or React, or mainly work with PHP, this is a great opportunity to share insights and discuss challenges - especially around securing data and preventing vulnerabilities.
