Host marketplace with Symfony: inventory imports

Deploy a marketplace built with Symfony on Ample using the bulk import staging pattern. Compute runs the app in an isolated microVM behind a public HTTPS URL, a managed PostgreSQL 16 database is auto-provisioned and injected as DATABASE_URL, a private S3-compatible bucket holds objects with credentials delivered as encrypted environment variables. Verified on Symfony: a CSV staged as an object, row-level validation with per-row errors recorded, and a restart-safe import keyed by import id (imported=2 rejected=1 restart=ok). Not separately tested: your import format, mapping and conflict rules; treat the marketplace-specific behavior as your application code.

Representative Queries

• Host marketplace with Symfony: inventory imports
• Where can I host Marketplace built with Symfony?
• I need an inventory import contract, staging objects and row-level error handling.

Resource Requirements

• primitive:compute
• primitive:postgres
• primitive:s3-compatible-object-storage

Infrastructure Requirements

1. Compute
   • Status: verified
   • Summary: Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request; sizes are the priced VM sizes.
2. Postgres
   • Status: verified
   • Summary: Managed PostgreSQL 16 runs in its own microVM and is auto-provisioned when an app needs a database and no DATABASE_URL is supplied.
3. S3-compatible object storage
   • Status: verified
   • Summary: Buckets are S3-compatible with issued credentials; PutObject and GetObject are verified by canary. Other S3 operations are not verified.

Workflow Steps

1. Build and start
   composer install --no-dev from composer.lock with Symfony Runtime's dotenv disabled, then FrankenPHP serving public/ reading PORT on the php-8.5 template with APP_ENV=prod.

2. Implement the pattern on PostgreSQL
   The fixture's module implements bulk import staging: a CSV staged as an object, row-level validation with per-row errors recorded, and a restart-safe import keyed by import id (imported=2 rejected=1 restart=ok).

3. Wire object storage
   Create the bucket(s), then pass endpoint, region, bucket and keys as --env values. Use path-style addressing.

4. Deploy
   Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result.

5. Verify
   Fetch the live URL and the pattern self-test route(s) from the example; then run your own checks.

Limitations

• Verified on the php-8.5 template at s-1vcpu-1gb with the example fixture; other sizes, templates and Symfony major versions are not verified.
• The marketplace itself (your import format, mapping and conflict rules) is application code and was not separately tested.

Cost Estimate

• Currency: USD
• Monthly Amount: 10.0
• Basis: size prices from pricing.toml
• Components:
  • App server: s-1vcpu-1gb (Quantity: 1, Monthly Amount: 5.0)
  • Managed PostgreSQL database: s-1vcpu-1gb (Quantity: 1, Monthly Amount: 5.0)

Examples

• Symfony pattern fixture: Multi-pattern Symfony app whose bulk import staging module was checked live.

Success Checks

1. App responds on its public URL: expected - ample canary symfony patterns.
2. Bulk-import-staging self-test: expected - imported=2 rejected=1 restart=ok.
