On Saturday, August 11th, Christopher Gervais and I presented at Drupal North 2018. That's the annual gathering of the Drupal community in southern Ontario and Quebec, Canada.
My tenure with the Ægir Project only dates back about 7 or 8 years. I can’t speak first-hand about its inception and those early days. So, I’ll leave that to some of the previous core team members, many of whom are publishing blog posts of their own.
There are many Web hosting companies claiming their ability to host Drupal sites in the enterprise space. However, most of the time, these providers simply provide the hardware or a virtual machine (VM/VPS) with an operating system (OS) capable of hosting Drupal if you build the application stack, configure it and manage it all yourself. They may even claim that they can set all of this up for you, but they'll charge extra for the labour. They don't have a comprehensive platform as a service where instances can be automatically deployed as needed.
While there are many articles on the Web comparing the two version control systems (VCSes)Subversion (SVN) and Git (i.e. SVN vs. Git), many of them are overly technical. This one, however, attempts to provide a higher-level business case for making the switch.
