Hello!
I'm thinking of moving a somewhat high traffic site off of a Verio VPS to LiquidWeb's Storm on Demand cloud hosting:
https://www.stormondemand.com/cloud-server/
I love the ability of our Verio VPS to scale up and down, but during high volume times the VPS isn't really enough.
I am interested to moving to Storm on Demand, and from googling I have found almost completely positive reviews. The few issues seem to be due to a slight downtime when scaling up/down and the inability to schedule scaling up/down. I have hosted dedicated & shared w/LiquidWeb before and was always impressed with their service & support (this was several years ago). Verio's support service & support used to be great, but has been getting noticeably worse over the past year.
So I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with installing & running Drupal (6) on SoD?
-
any issues installing? with .htaccess, file permissions etc?
-
performance good?
-
uptime good?
-
issues scaling up/down?
-
and my main question, do you get the "could not allocate nodes" error that I hear is a big issue with the RackSpace cloud solution?
Answers to these, or any other first-hand experience with SoD would be greatly appreciated. I'm always surprised at how little info there seems to be on users running Drupal in the cloud.
Cheers & Thanks!
