Our project goal is to realize managing not only Public Cloud but also Private Cloud by developing operations even easier. We are managing Amazon EC2, and our Private Cloud by making our own Cloud management tool by Drupal, which we call Virtual Infra Manager beyond Drupal as a Content Management System. --- Drupal as a fundamental of PaaS (Platform as a Service)

Build your own MoveOn.org in Drupal

Scott Reynen 3 July 2010

Every advocacy group has a website about their campaign, but what they need is a campaign that actually happens online. An effective website should offer volunteers ways to truly participate in shaping public opinion through online and offline interactions. And Drupal can make this possible.

Type:  Not planned session

Drupal thrives when it is supported by robust communities of both Drupal end-users and developers. To sustain these communities we need to provide support and opportunities for growth.

Drupal and the semantic web

Kristof Van Tomme 2 July 2010
Type:  Not planned session

Want to find out why all the geeks are so excited about that four letter word (RDFa) that's now supposed to be in Drupal 7 core?

As of Drupal 7 we'll have RDFa markup in core, in this session I will:

  • explain what the implications are of this and why this matters
  • give a short introduction to the Semantic web, RDF, RDFa and SPARQL in human language
  • give a short overview of the RDF modules that are available in contrib
  • talk about some of the potential use cases of all these magical technologies

Slides for a former incarnation of this presentation are up at:

Aegir - one Drupal to rule them all!

Adrian Rossouw 2 July 2010
Type:  Session in official program

This session will illustrate the use of the Aegir hosting system to simplify the life of developers and administrators, by automating a lot of the common tasks involved in deploying sites and collecting best practices of Drupal sites management.

Aegir is a distributed provisioning system for Drupal that allows you to manage thousands of sites across as many concurrent instances of Drupal on as many servers as you need. It's built on Drupal itself, so that your user interface to the system becomes a 'meta-drupal' site, with nodes representing all of your hosted sites and all of the components of your hosting environment.

Whether you are new to Aegir (or Drupal!) or an experienced developer, you will get a very good idea of where we are in the development of this project and the latest new features we are giving to the community.
