Pantheon is a Web development platform for open-source Drupal based websites. It is an app-specific PaaS provider. Pantheon runs as software-as-a-service instead of running on users own servers. Pantheon’s “Drupal-as-a-service” is built on top of Rackspace’s cloud. It offers a platform for developing custom sites which is fast and versatile, but Pantheon makes Drupal development more accessible.
Company Overview
Pantheon is a San Francisco-based platform founded in 2010. The company raised $1.3 million in start.[1] The new $5 million round was led by Foundry Group, with previous investors being Baseline Ventures, First Round Capital, Floodgate, and Founders Collective bringing the total amount to $6.3 million.[2]
Features
Pantheon is a combination of web development tools in the cloud and web hosting and management services. It is based in the cloud, and the service is free for developers.[1][3] Developers have a choice between Drupal 6, Drupal 7 and installation of profiles like Open Atrium. Data can imported onto Pantheon automatically if the business has an existing Drupal-based website.[4] Pantheon Multidev does for a company’s website what software-defined data centers do for its infrastructure. Each member of a team can use all the services that power a site on demand, developing on a single platform. As a result, large websites launch faster and cost less to manage over time.[5][6]
Based on Pantheon’s multi-tenant containerized architecture, Multidev spins up in seconds, with no need for additional infrastructure or virtual servers.[7]
Pantheon makes it easy to deploy different versions of a site on test servers and the live site, as well as backup servers. [8][1]
