By integrating PHP 8.4 in its early stages, ServBay provides developers with an exclusive opportunity to explore and experiment with the latest features that PHP 8.4 has to offer. This early access is invaluable for developers looking to innovate and leverage new functionalities in their projects ahead of the curve.

This means applications built with Node.js 22 can handle more concurrent requests and deliver faster responses, creating a more seamless experience for end-users.
