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 and members of the Drupal community 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
Enhancing site scale and performance by taking advantage of cloud file storage/CDN
Cloud/Drupal success stories such as Chapter Three’s ( http://www.chapterthree.com ) on Mercury, a Drupal PaaS built on The Rackspace Cloud’s Cloud Servers
