Feel free to peruse the AegirNG architecture document, which is publicly available. Neither of these initiatives are stable yet, but development is on-going. This is intended to be a medium-term solution until Aegir 5 (codenamed AegirNG), a complete rewrite for hosting any application, is ready. We've got an Aegir 4 branch based on Symfony, which is also included in Drupal core.

While Aegir 3 is stable and usable now ( Download it!), we've started moving away from Drush, which traditionally handles the heavy lifting (see Provision: Drupal 8.4 support for details), and into a couple of different directions. So what's new with the project? We've got several initiatives on the go. I became a core maintainer of the project about a year and a half ago. I've been using it ever since for all of my SaaS projects, and have been taking the lead on Drupal 8 e-commerce integration. I started by improving the documentation, working on contributed modules, and then eventually the core system.

I got involved in the project a couple of years ago, when I needed a hosting solution for a project I was working on. While Aegir had a slow uptake (the usability wasn't great in the early days), it's now being used by all kinds of organizations, including NASA. We've actually produced a timeline including all major historical events. The first commit occurred on December 7th, 2007. Plus, you get all the benefits of open source.Īegir turns ten (10) today. While it's possible to find a company that will host Drupal sites for you, Aegir helps you maintain control whether you want to use your own infrastructure or manage your own software-as-a-service (SaaS) product. If you need an open-source solution for hosting and managing Drupal sites, there's only one option: the Aegir Hosting System. Aegir: Your open-source hosting platform for Drupal sites
