The Zend Framework Module for Drupal ensures that the Zend Framework is installed properly and ready for use. It lists the Zend Framework version number in the server status page, let's the administrator change Zend's installation directory, as well as provide a nice API feature set to make the Zend Framework's functionality easily accessible to other modules. One of these API benefits is the zend_initialize($class) function that cleanly includes a class from the Zend Framework and make it ready for use.
This could lead to some very powerful Service modules that use the powerful web service platform.

Zend MVC in Drupal
Hello Rob
I developed some projects in drupal as well as with the Zend Framework. My question is now. Is it possible to merge both frameworks? I would love to develope some modules with Zend Framework (probably accessing CCK nodes in the model) or I would love to use the community management of drupal and use the nicely written classes of the Zend Framework. Unfortunately I couldn't find any tutorial about Drupal+ZendFramework.
Any suggestions?

Zend_Mail
The Zend_Mail module (http://drupal.org/project/zend) provides a quick demonstration how we can use Drupal with the Zend Framework. It's part of the Zend Framework module's core. The Zend Framework is a bunch of completely unrelated tools. The only relation between them is that they use the same coding standards, and are pretty awesome. If you have a task that could use the Zend Framework (like use the Technorati API), then you could use the Zend Framework. It's not enough just to want to use the framework without a goal...
Rob, I have been looking at
Rob,
I have been looking at this recently. I wondered if you might have a working example you can discuss to illustrate how Zend framework can work with Drupal using this module?
How are you working drupal into OOP and design patterns?

I see advantages with Drupal
I see advantages with Drupal and Zend Framework. I too am interested in exploring how the two could perhaps co-exist. I am also doing some work in Kohana. Basically, I have in mind ZF using Drupal for user management and login. I have found it advantageous to use ZF/Kohana for some functionality but want to have it callable from Drupal.
I need to directly run some parts of ZF as well. Would likely require some .htaccess magic.
Is anyone taking this approach?
zendamf
and about the "new" Zend AMF?
is there a project to replace the amfphp service module for this new approach with zend amf (adobe is supporting..)?
I haven't heard of anything
I haven't heard of anything out yet, but I don't see the point of replacing the amfphp module. I think it would be nice to have the option to use either though.
How about the fact that amfPHP is dying
amfPHP has not had a release in coming up on 2 years. There have been no changes on the web site since 10.19.2008. The project lead went to work on zendAMF. I think these are all good reasons to replace the amfPHP with zendAMF
ZendAMF is the supported version now
From what I understand Wade Arnold is no longer supporting amfphp and is working exclusively with ZendAMF (I would love a way to verify this).
I am very interested in building a ZendAMF module for a project I am working on.
I am not sure I am up to the task, but I intend to give it a try.

ZendAMF looks realy good
Looking forward for a ZendAmd module.
Let me know if you need some testing.
Integrating Drupal 6 to Zend Framework Application
hi all,
I need your help to integrate Drupal 6 to Zend Framework(1.10) based Application.
Drupal is on dp.wow.com
Zend Framework based App on www.wow.com
I am trying to use Zend Auth in Drupal so that I do not need to use Drupal's user login.
What's the best way to integrate both.
Is anyone taking this approach?
Thanks so much.
