How's it built?
Dev Cloud
Look under the hood to see how we save you the time and hassle of site operations.
Visitors
Visitors request pages
Intelligent page cache
Varnish serves cached pages without ever hitting the web server. Nginx routes uncached requests to the web server.
Drupal-tuned web server
Optimized for Drupal to process requests fast - querying the database and file server to deliver dynamic content to users quickly.
Files and databases
Files and DBs are stored on highly reliable network RAID volumes. If the web server needs to re-launch, your files and DBs are safe.
Code repo
You commit code to your repo using SVN or Git, and Acquia Cloud deploys it on your web servers automatically.
I took Acquia's Dev Cloud for a spin and really like it. No hassles, it really has to be the simplest high-traffic ready system I've ever used.
