  • KV drivers: Redis, Memcached, BoltDB, In-Memory.

  • OpenTelemetry protocol support (gRPC, http, jaeger).

  • Workflows engine via Temporal

  • gRPC server. For increased speed, the protobuf extension can be used.

  • Embedded distribute lock plugin which manages access to shared resources.

  • Metrics server (you might easily expose your own).

  • WebSockets and Broadcast via Centrifugo server.

  • Systemd-like services manager with auto-restarts, execution time limiter, etc.

  • Embedded supervisor for your PHP workers with execution, max working time, and memory TTLs.
