As you would imagine, there's still kinks to work out, but I'm really excited to see how people actually use it. Probably my favorite part of software dev is seeing people using your product in ways you never even thought of. Hope you guys enjoy it!

Drupal already has configurable tools to handle scaling required for 90% of sites out there. We have to do custom work, mostly because of the other customizations we've done, but still use standard tools.

Site growth and higher sustained utilization present other development challenges, but you'll have to be specific about your concerns.

And I think that these days going with external hosting is a no-brainer, even sometimes a hosting service with specialized expertise in your CMS/framework could be worth it, because you farm out the scalability and traffic spike stuff to them.

Mariusz I've recently started working with Drupal (previously TextPattern) and I msut say - love it. I'm just wondering if Drupal has got the same range of functionality (through modules) as Joomla...

What I can say ...MoreI don't have too much experience with Joomla, but from what I understand, they are very similar in the types of modules they offer. What I can say about Drupal is that the modules are coded very well, are reliable, secure, and can be built upon. I have been told that Joomla doesn't have as much of a learning curve and is better for designers, but not great for developers.

While the learning curve is softer on Joomla, it simply isn't the robust framework that you need for cutting edge applications. who loves Drupal? Publishers do. Check out http://drupal.org/books for the GROWING list of books. Universities, governments, libraries, etc. If you want some high quality videos [DVD or DownLoad] check out the Lullabot store at http://is.gd/4LYSi The Drupal community teaches its own in local groups, books, videos, online chat, events, etc.

Mariusz within a day of exploring Drupal I started making my own themes - which I find pretty good. Not developing in PHP at all, I found Joomla slightly more forbidding. Interesting...

Ed Preston What hosting horsepower does a drupal site like Brazen require? Single, dedicated server? On-demand, scalable cloud hosting? ..just curious.
