Symfony:PHPEnterpriseArchitecture
The framework used by Drupal, Magento, and Laravel itself in its components. When you need real hexagonal architecture, not magic methods.
APIs, DDD, Hexagonal Architecture
Symfony for enterprise projects that scale
Symfony is not "hard Laravel". It's explicit architecture. Native Dependency Injection, Event Dispatcher for CQRS, Messenger for async processing. Doctrine ORM with Unit of Work pattern. Flex for dependency management without bloat. Reusable components you can extract to microservices.
What We Deliver
Every Symfony project includes:
Incluido
No incluido
For Decision Makers
Symfony is the PHP framework with the greatest long-term stability. 4-year LTS vs Laravel's 2.
Used by BlaBlaCar, Spotify (PHP backend), Trivago. Scales to millions of users.
Architecture that allows large teams to work in parallel without merge conflicts.
For CTOs
Native Dependency Injection with autowiring. Compiled service container for maximum performance.
Doctrine ORM with Unit of Work, Identity Map, automatic migrations. Type-safe QueryBuilder.
Messenger for async processing (RabbitMQ, Redis). Event Dispatcher for CQRS without external libraries.
Enterprise Stack
Is It For You?
Who it's for
- Enterprise projects with DDD/hexagonal architecture requirements
- Teams of 5+ developers who need to work in parallel
- Systems with complex business logic and bounded contexts
- APIs requiring versioning and backward compatibility
- Organizations needing 4+ year LTS
Who it's not for
- MVPs that need speed over architecture
- Small projects where Laravel is sufficient
- Teams without enterprise pattern experience
- If you prefer convention over configuration
Risk Reduction
Methodology
Domain Modeling
Bounded contexts, aggregates, domain events.
Architecture
Application, Domain, Infrastructure layers. Ports & Adapters.
Implementation
TDD with PHPUnit. PHPStan level 9 from day 1.
Production
CI/CD, monitoring, operations documentation.
Use Cases
Enterprise APIs
Versioning, backward compatibility, multiple consumers.
DDD/CQRS
Bounded contexts, event sourcing, sagas.
Microservices
Symfony components extractable to independent services.
PHP Enterprise Credentials
Team with 15+ years of experience in Symfony since version 2. DDD architectures for fintech, insurance, and B2B e-commerce. Projects with 50+ developers working in parallel.
Frequently Asked Questions
Symfony or Laravel?
Laravel for MVPs and quick productivity. Symfony when you need real DDD architecture, large teams, and 4-year LTS.
Is Symfony slower than Laravel?
No. The compiled container and OPcache JIT make Symfony equal or faster. The "slowness" is a myth from old versions.
What is API Platform?
Framework on top of Symfony to create automatic REST/GraphQL APIs with OpenAPI, pagination, filters, and configurable serialization.
Doctrine vs Eloquent?
Doctrine uses Unit of Work pattern: changes persist at the end. More control, better for complex domain logic.
How do you handle CQRS?
Native Messenger component. Commands for writing, Queries for reading. Event Dispatcher for projections.
Does it include training for my team?
Yes. DDD architecture workshops, pair programming, architectural decision documentation (ADRs).
Hosting included?
We configure on AWS, GCP, or VPS. Platform.sh or Symfony Cloud optional. EU servers for GDPR.
Post-launch support?
Maintenance contracts with SLA. Security updates, version upgrades, architectural support.
Architecture That Doesn't Scale?
PHP code audit. We identify technical debt and propose gradual migration to Symfony.
