On the Zend Developer Zone today, Cal Evans has another of his interviews with the speakers at various PHP conferences, this time, it's with Theo Schlossnagle of OmniTi.

This is another in a series of interviews I’ve been conducting as I travel to different conferences. Most of the people I get the chance to interview are directly involved with PHP in some way. This interview is a bit different. Theo Schlossnagle is the founder of OmniTI, one of the premier PHP consulting companies in the world. OmniTI consults with companies all around the globe on issues ranging from architecture to security.

Cal asks questions about the background of OmniTI, how they find/retain programmers, Messaging Systems, Theo's book, scaling in general, and some of his thoughts on what PHP still has to overcome.

On the Zend Developer Zone today, there's yet another of the interviews Cal Evans did at this year's OSCON, this time with George Schlossnagle of OmniTI.

At OSCON 2006, I caught up with most of the principals of OmniTI. They each gave me some time out of their busy schedule to ask them about their history, the company, PHP and technology in general. One of the OmniTI gang I got to talk with was George Schlossnagle.

I was able to pry George away from speaking and taking pictures long enough to sit down and talk tech for a few minutes. Here's how our conversation went.

They talked about how George got started, both with PHP and at OmniTI, some about the company, and what kind of work he does there. They get into more PHP-type things when they talk about scalability, session management, PHP mistakes, updates and its use in the enterprise. Oh, and of course, the fun questions...
