On the Zend blog they've posted a retrospective of 2016 and some of their most popular articles published over the last year.

The audience has spoken. From Zend Framework 3 release to Zend Server with PHP 7, from IBM i to AWS, the top ten articles on the blog from 2016 cover a wide range of topics to help you deliver PHP applications rapidly, reliably, securely, both on-premise and in the cloud.

Articles that made the list include:

• 10 ways Zend Server boosts performance
• AWS 101 for PHP developers
• Zend Framework 3 release
• PHP 7 is gaining momentum

Check out the original post for the full list. Predictably, most are related to Zend's own offerings but its good to see some other topics mixed in there as well.
