PHP for Cloud Workloads

Server-side scripting language and runtime for web applications, command-line programs, extensions, database access, sessions, streams, and application frameworks. Confirm the packaged release, operating-system and architecture compatibility, dependencies, licensing, edition limits, and vendor certification before deployment. Deploy only on a compatible operating system and architecture. Configure identity, network controls, storage, secrets, logging, monitoring, backup, updates, and workload-specific dependencies. Validate security guidance, capacity, data handling, and recovery before production use. Consult https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php for authoritative documentation and limitations.
