🚀 Du développement à la production : déployer une API Symfony avec Upsun

on May 26, 2025

Are you looking to scale your Symfony or Laravel projects with ease? Want to deploy your apps like a pro while staying efficient and eco-friendly? 🌱 Well, that’s exactly what I walked through in my latest video.

Let me break it down for you 👇

🧩 What is Upsun?

Upsun is a cloud platform built on the foundation of Platform.sh. It makes deployment simple and secure for all kinds of applications: Symfony, Laravel, Next.js, Rails, Django, even LangChain for AI enthusiasts 🤖

They say it best: *"Simply turning code into secure production applications."- ✅

Best of all? It’s fast, green, and made for developers like you and me 🧑‍💻

🛠 What Did I Deploy?

Instead of a standard demo app, I deployed Uniflow’s API (a Symfony-based project powered by Sylius 2.0.7). Here’s how it went:

📁 Copied the Uniflow API code into a local working directory
🧬 Initialized Git and committed the base project
🌍 Created a new project on Upsun, selecting the OVH region (my favorite 🇫🇷)
🖥 Connected the Git repo to the Upsun remote
🛠 Added configuration files: .upsun/config.yaml, routes.yaml, and services.yaml
🎯 Defined:

• PHP 8.2 runtime
• PostgreSQL 15 as a service
• Required extensions like sodium
• Proper DATABASE_URL from environment variables

🔁 Ran git push upsun 1.x and... the magic started! 🎩✨

Upsun installed all Composer dependencies, ran migrations, created my DB, installed JWT keys, and more — even provisioned my HTTPS certs automatically. ✅

🧑‍🔬 What I Liked About Upsun

• The web UI is clear and intuitive
• CLI deployment is smooth and fast 💨
• Green cloud infrastructure ♻️
• Excellent integration with Symfony & Laravel
• Built-in support for Horizon (if you're into Laravel queues)

Bonus: Guillaume Moigneux’s blog post on Laravel + Horizon on Upsun is worth the read if you're in the Laravel ecosystem 🔥
