Cloud Computing Anyone?

Alpine has again expanded our partnership with Amazon and now has production servers up on the Amazon Web Services platform.  If you are as geeky as me, you can read more >.

In essence, Alpine can build and run sites on the Amazon hardware and network.  With this upgrade, clients benefit from AWS's "battle-tested" facilities, network, power, drives and many other components that contribute to the best uptime in the business.   With this nearly infinite computing power at our disposal, we can turn up production, provisioning servers very rapidly (and will be able to use it as a platform for the next big, secret stage in "the big plan" -- more on that later).

This new environment has loads of benefits, but is also a little more expensive and has some limitations, so we are working on ways to make it more affordable and supportable.   Call if you would like to know if your site is eligible and would benefit from this upgrade.

Locals Only - Friday Workshops

Thanks to all of you that have been coming to our Friday workshops.  We are doing two classes again this week:

WordPress Plugins (11 to noon) - Auz and Dustin will be leading a discussion on the amazing array of free plugins available for our new best friend, Wordpress (including Real Estate and Commerce solutions). 

This class is open to the public, so feel free to invite a friend.

Open Training (noon to 1pm) - Bring your lunch and learn about the features that you didn't know existed in Center Stage.  In this class we cover "How To's", implementing your ideas, and integration with other products you might be using along with Center Stage.

Remember, we have a new location at 790 Industrial.  Directions >

Last week we had an attendee say, "I'm glad you are having these classes.  I'm learning about features I didn't have time to learn when I was building the site". 

Love to hear that.  Come join us.

- Brian
