Like clockwork, the next release of PHP is slated to come out on November 26th. It’s packed with new features and performance improvements, as well as general overall polish. And as usual, you can try it out early on Platform.sh with a single-line change. We now have a php:8.0-rc container image available. That is rc meaning our prerelease, not PHP’s RC phase. It is PHP 8.0 beta 3 (just released as of this writing), but we will be updating it periodically as new pre-release versions of PHP 8 are released in the coming weeks.
