Scalable PHP 5.4 and PHP 5.5 hosting
You asked for it and now it’s here! It gives us great pleasure to announce full support for PHP 5.3, PHP 5.4 and PHP 5.5 hosting across our Cloud VPS and Jelastic scalable hosting services. While PHP version 5.5 is new, PHP 5.4 has been available for some time on our Jelastic scalable PHP platform, but we’ve been eagerly waiting support for multiple PHP versions in the new Plesk 11.5 to launch this across our Cloud VPS range too.
Some of the top new features of PHP 5.4 hosting
- Traits allowing you to horizontally reuse code across independent classes in different class hierarchies
- Improved performance and resource usage optimisation, especially in some large apps
- Short Array Syntax to make it easier to define an array
- Direct de-referencing of function arrays
- Many other improvements such as: enhanced closure binding, ability to use objects as functions, binary number notation, native session handler interface, improved error messages and many bug fixes
