There has been an up and coming categorization of engineers in the Drupal world that specialize in what we call DevOps. DevOps entails managing the infrastructure and workflow practices to deliver enterprise level sites in complex environments. This should span everything from automated testing, change management tools like puppet, branching strategies, continuous integration, performance and anything else that falls in this category.
Please make every effort to keep posts in this group on topic. We will do our best to assist, but this is not a dumping ground for random requests and development problems.
Discussions and wikis
Collaborating on DevOps tools for the Drupal Community.
Drupalcon Portland inspired me to start a discussion on steps we can take to foster more collaboration and discussion on DevOps as it applies to those using Drupal. There is a ton of DevOps knowledge distributed throughout the community that is sadly not being shared in a helpful manner. This could be some nifty trick a freelancer picks up that goes undocumented, up to a larger agency using a full suite of tools not released for public use/modification.

Neoprene - Using Fabric for Drupal deploys and workflows
Hey Folks,
I've been working on some deploy recipes for Drupal, built upon the great Python tool Fabric. Drush still does most of the heavy lifting, but Fabirc gives me a nice way of putting a several commands together into a single deploy or development workflow command.
I'm packaging these recipes together in a set of modules called Neoprene. It's pretty alpha code at this stage but someone on another group suggested some folks in this channel might find this useful.

Big Data Drupal with Cloudera, Hadoop, MapReduce, Nutch and Solr
thanks to the recent work of the Solr Nutch sandbox project I've managed to get Nutch 1.6 jobs to run on a Cloudera CDH3 4 node cluster sending results to Solr 3.6.2 (hosted within Tomcat on Aegir BOA) and then integrated into the Apache Solr 7.1.1 module (not the dev) into search results and Apache Solr Views
I must say, I am pretty excited about Hadoop / Cloudera running Nutch and Solr and integrating with Drupal
for anyone interested in setting up a Cloudera cluster I recommend masterschema (centos) and Gregory Grubbs on YouTube (debian)
I'll post some notes etc ASAP

Drupal speed-up for development environment
Why?
The first idea that came to my mind when I first ran cache clear that lasted a minute or so, was "I want it run quicker!". If you are those unhappy guys who don't have an SSD, but do have a bit of RAM - you may find this discussion interesting and useful.
