cloud computing

WELCOME!

I've written a blog to provide a quick overview that explains more about the purpose of this group:

"Secure Cloud Computing for Drupal-based Open Government"

The idea is to develop a team to define this detail, as part of responding to sales opportunities like this one:

The secret is out – Drupal has become the ‘go-to’ open source software for the publication and management of website content. By pairing Drupal with cloud technologies there is a whole new world of user benefits well beyond scale and performance.

In this session, Bret Piatt, director, technical alliances at Rackspace Hosting will discuss how to best take advantage of cloud technologies with Drupal sites. The panel presentation will address:

• Leveraging the cloud ecosystem for managing configuration, code, and backups
• How to scale Drupal clusters by integrating with cloud APIs
