Support for Drupal in the Cloud The cloud offers a unique opportunity for today’s enterprise to start small and scale web applications according to user demand. We have built a number of Drupal enterprise-grade applications to work on both Amazon EC2 and Rackspace Cloud Servers. Building Drupal applications for the cloud requires intimate understanding of Drupal’s architecture and an understanding of the LAMP stack. And once the application has been built, the Drupal system must be optimized to speed-up the application. We use a number of strategies to build and scale application. Our team is able to benchmark anonymous and authenticated user response times to give your application the best allocation of server resources in the cloud.
