Laravel Cloud: Any local ways to optimize/resize uploaded images?
Trying out the new Cloud. Seems nice, so far.
But haven’t been able to find a “local” to optimize/scale user uploaded images.
I tried with the spatie laravel image optimizer package, but nothing. I guess none of the packages it uses, is available on the Laravel Cloud instance.
Is there no way, other than using an external service through an API to resize my images, like Tinify?
Clarification: I already use the bucket in Laravel Cloud. Users upload usually 5mb from their camera roll. After OpenAI is done with OCR processing, I’d like to resize it to <1mb and just store that, for future reference, instead of 5mb.

Advantage Database Server
I have a website primarily coded in PHP on an Ubuntu server and we were hoping to get data from an Advantage Database Server which is on a Windows Server. We're running PHP 8.3 currently. The closest thing I could find is the SAP SQL Anywhere PHP Module (The SAP SQL Anywhere PHP Module | SAP Help Portal). Is anyone else able to get this to work?

Does Laravel Cloud offer API?
Just like Laravel Forge- can I create resources via API? I would like to use it to manage my clients' instances (it's impossible to manage such volume manually).
I did not find anything in official docs which seems strange to me. Maybe I'm naive but I would expect at least the same feature parity when releasing another tool from the same company that created Forge.

Am I wrong to combine c# with my XAMPP backend?
I apologize if this is a dumb question and I truthfully searched to see if this had been asked.
I developing a Windows desktop application that requires an authentication system. The data is on an Apache server (well, a WAMP/XAMPP) stack for now). I chose this environment because I have limited knowledge on .NET and just need this tool done. All of the backend API's are in PHP. User database is in mySQL.
Is there anything necessarily wrong with what I'm doing? I know how to handle API's and make sure that all the data is secure, such as sending over HTTPS, not storing database information in the application itself, encryption, tokens, brute force etc. I'm specifically referring to the general concept, if this is a "no no". With C# being a MS product, I am sure the standard is to go with ASP.
For anybody that might be wondering why I am now making a Windows application for a PHP web-based application, it's because my application now requires CPU intensive tasks and there is data that I am getting from the desktop itself (GPS).
Thank you.
