Chapter Three: Project Mercury News: 100+ Instances launched, Alpha 6 w/Solr, VPS on the horizon

As I just posted over on the PANTHEON drupal group, a new release of Project Mercury is out, now including Apache Solr as the search back-end! This is especially exciting because it rounds out the core technology stack for a best-practice "all in one" server. Mercury not only delivers high performance Drupal out of the box, it's also got all the pieces you need to scale your architecture vertically when the time comes.
If you want to snag the latest version, search EC2 for "mercury" and jump on the alpha-6 AMI. It's available in 64 and 32-bit flavors both in the US and EU hosting zones.
With the major stack pieces in place (or so we think; let us know what we might still be missing...) the focus will soon shift to stability, tuning, and portability — aka alternatives to EC2 — as the project enters its Beta phase. This can't come too soon: we've already seen more than 100 instances launched since the last (0.51) release, and more and more people wanting to run existing sites using Mercury as a host.read more
