I am with a doubt, in our company we have a system, developed in Mysql and Delphi, this system is developed by a company, and we are with several development projects, several new systems (created within our company) are made with Cakephp, we are planning to integrate everything.

My question is this, it is worth trying to develop a Rest layer that connects to this Mysql database using Cakephp to give returns to other applications?

Are following Cakephp’s conventions worth it? They would no longer be agile to develop in nail or use some other ORM framework for accessing and reading the existing database tables?

  • if the delphy system is too big for the team to redo in php, then create a cake webservice that accesses the data there, but I always prefer to get rid of legacy system and make a new one with good practices, but there goes the company. knows Larable?

  • Yes I’ve heard of Laravel, but the company is using Cakephp itself, about Delphi we will not pay for them to develop the API will be very expensive, but also we will not develop an entire system from scratch, I think the way is to use Cakehpp even then to map existing tables
