Omnipay is yet another multi-gateway payment processing library for PHP 5+. Have a look at documentation and examples here:
Omnipay is a payment processing library for PHP. It has been designed based on ideas from Active Merchant, plus experience implementing dozens of gateways for CI Merchant. It has a clear and consistent API, is fully unit tested, and even comes with an example application to get you started.

I think I’m giving up on even knowing the list and purpose of all the Amazon AWS services, let alone how to use them. Here’s one I haven’t heard about until this very morning: AWS X-Ray.
AWS X-Ray helps developers analyze and debug production, distributed applications, such as those built using a microservices architecture. With X-Ray, you can understand how your application and its underlying services are performing to identify and troubleshoot the root cause of performance issues and errors. X-Ray provides an end-to-end view of requests as they travel through your application, and shows a map of your application’s underlying components. You can use X-Ray to analyze both applications in development and in production, from simple three-tier applications to complex microservices applications consisting of thousands of services.

For the last 3 years, I’ve been using Feedly, which I like a lot. I’ve been thinking about going Pro for about a year now. Last week, I made the switch. Here’s why:
Feedly constantly improves the user experience and brings new features. It works very stable – I think only remember one or two downtimes in the last three years. Their web interface is very handy and the mobile app works well too. They have plenty of browser add-ons to make things even easier.
All in all, it’s well worth $5 per month for me.
