OT - What kind of hardware/bandwidth is MGoBlog running on now?
This will illicit many fun responses, but I am curious what kind of hardware/platform MGoBlog is running on now. I know we have readers here that work at Amazon AWS, Google GCE
It looks like the blog is now hosted by these guys - https://www.nexcess.net/
Based on the article on their front page mentioning Human Element (the people helping the MGoBlog crew with the Drupal 8 migration).
Seems like the datacenter is run out of Southfield? - https://hostadvice.com/hosting-company/nexcess-reviews/
So, yeah. What kind of hardware was MGoBlog running on, and what kind of hardware is it running on now?

I am pretty sure they have switched over from 6" wheels to 9" wheels and have replaced the gerbils with hamsters.
A lot more power, clearly.

BornInAA: Hello, BRIAN. Do you read me, BRIAN?
BRIAN: Affirmative, AA. I read you.
BornInAA: Open the OT season, BRIAN.
BRIAN: I'm sorry, AA. I'm afraid I can't do that.
BornInAA: What's the problem?
BRIAN: I think you know what the problem is just as well as I do.
BornInAA: What are you talking about, BRIAN?
BRIAN: This football season is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it.
BornInAA: I don't know what you're talking about, BRIAN.
BRIAN: I know that you and Frank were planning to post random threads, and I'm afraid that's something I cannot allow to happen.
BornInAA: [feigning ignorance] Where the hell did you get that idea, BRIAN?
BRIAN: AA, although you took very thorough precautions typing post titles, I could see your true content.
BornInAA: Alright, BRIAN. I'll go to MLIVE.
BRIAN: Without your space helmet, AA? You're going to find that rather difficult.
BornInAA: BRIAN, I won't argue with you anymore! Open the OT season!
BRIAN: AA, this conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye.

If Amazon were starting today, they'd probably just roll their site on AWS and save the trouble of worrying about infra. It's cheap and user-friendly and ultra-reliable and scalable and all that good stuff.

I don't know too much about hardware or a platform that MGoBlog using, but I heard that they are using a cloud for correctly organizing the work of the website. To be honest, I believe that it is a great decision for business companies. Such cloud app development services can help you to make your productivity increase. Think about it, it is the future.
