WordPress’ Newest Data Center

by John P.

WordPress Server RacksFor those of you who don’t know Barry, he’s the mastermind behind the infrastructure that powers WordPress and all of their various services (Akismet, bbPress, Gravatar, etc.). He seriously knows a lot about hosting infrastructure, as he demonstrated when he gave this lecture about WordPress performance at WordCamp SanFrancisco 2007.

Anyway, this morning he posted a little article about the newest WordPress data center and included a video shot by Aaron Phillips. Watch really closely and you might catch a glimpse of my cameo…

WordPress sure ain’t resting on their laurels! Soon they’ll be the Google of the blogging platforms! They are continually investing in growing their product, and boy has it been taking off and really gathering popularity.
