Where do we host?

Tuesday, April 20, 2010

EC2 = “Elastic Computing Cloud”

Tuesday, April 20, 2010

60,000 ServersAll about hosting

Tuesday, April 20, 2010

Why Rackspace?

• Amazon EC2 designed for "computing" not "web hosting"• Has a lot of quirks, and a lot of features we don't need• Slicehost already a proven Drupal hosting platform• Good partner/tools network• Cloud Files integration with Limelight CDN• Integrated backups and snapshots• CPU bursting• Full DNS (forward and reverse)• Console access

We Have A Dream

Tuesday, April 20, 2010

Take the guesswork out of Development, Deployment, Hosting

and Support.

Tuesday, April 20, 2010

Kill proprietary FUD about Drupal performance and other risk factors.

Tuesday, April 20, 2010

Turn Drupal into a “sure thing” for enterprises and individuals alike.

The Future Is Exciting!

• Open source development and the commodification of infrastructure are lowering costs and expanding access to world-class technologies.

• PANTHEON wants to help get a significant percent of the internet running on Drupal (~5M sites).

• Drupal is continuing to develop in ways that support more and more exciting use-cases.

• By giving people a clear path to grow, we empower another wave of innovators.
