Add production-grade architecture to your existing framework with a single Composer package. No framework change. No base classes. Just PHP attributes.
Controllers doing too much. Business logic scattered across listeners, services, and middleware. Every change risks breaking something unrelated. Testing requires bootstrapping the entire framework.
Ecotone introduces clear separation — Command Handlers for writes, Query Handlers for reads, Event Handlers for reactions. Each has a single responsibility, wired automatically through PHP attributes.
Failed jobs disappear silently. There's no retry strategy beyond "try again 3 times." You can't replay failed messages or see what's stuck in the queue. Going async required touching every handler.
Ecotone provides production resilience — automatic retries, error channels, dead letter queues, outbox pattern, and idempotency. All declarative via attributes, with a single attribute to make any handler async.
You've seen CQRS, Event Sourcing, and Sagas in Java and .NET ecosystems. Every PHP implementation requires rewriting your application or adopting an opinionated framework.
Ecotone brings these patterns to your existing stack — works with Laravel (Eloquent, Queues, Octane) and Symfony (Doctrine, Messenger Transport) without requiring a framework change. No base classes to extend, no interfaces to implement.
Laravel developers — Keep Eloquent, add enterprise messaging.
Start with Laravel Quick Start or Laravel Module docs.
Symfony developers — Go beyond Symfony Messenger.
Start with Symfony Quick Start or Symfony Module docs.
Other PHP frameworks — Use Ecotone with any PHP application.
Start with Ecotone Lite docs.
Architects — PHP can do what Spring and Axon do.
