powered by

esses hosted sites are primarily powered by Slicehost. after latency and reliability issues with a major "business-class" host, the decision was made to build esses-optimized servers. these servers run the typical Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP stack, plus some other highly classified stuff. esses would also like to acknowledge it's beverage partners, peet's coffee, philz coffee, and sugar-free red bull.
