[VIDEO] Installing Drupal 6 on Cloud Sites
Yesterday I posted a video tutorial covering how to install WordPress on the Rackspace Cloud Sites platform. This video was a huge hit so I wanted to put together another one showing another extremely popular platform deployed onto Cloud Sites, Drupal.
I’ve used Drupal personally for many years on various projects and it is by far my favorite CMS platform for a variety of reasons, most of which revolve around the massive community. Watch the video for a step-by-step walk through with some quick performance notes as well which will ensure your Drupal site runs and scales smoothly within the Cloud and uses as few resources along the way as possible.
If you have any feedback or ideas for other video tutorials please leave me a comment or drop me a line on Twitter (@ckeck).

Nice, simple, clean tutorial there for really any Drupal installation. I too have spent many years with Drupal but am especially looking forward to getting setup with a cloudserver!

What about cron jobs?
Chad
Simple! Under the features tab in the control panel we have a cron manager for setting up all your cron jobs. It is very powerful and easy to use.

Hi Chad,
Great video.
I am a newbie with cloud hosting. I would like to have a lower costing alternative to cloud site during the Drupal site developing period. Hence cloud server. Are there any video that show how to set up the environment, so that I can apply this video and install drupal?
Thanks,
JP
