Gondor

Gondor is the production infrastructure that we at Eldarion have built for our own sites and those of our clients. Now in its second major iteration after years of being primarily an internal tool to manage our own deployment and hosting needs, it is now available to you. With Gondor, you can focus on building great sites, not managing infrastructure and deployments.

Simple

A website that is hosted on Gondor is a simple one command deployment. This means that you can deploy as frequently as you’d like, keeping your attention on creating and not dealing with the repetitive and complex nature of maintaining professional-grade infrastructure.

Powerful

Backed by Rackspace, your Gondor hosted website will always have the resources it needs to scale.

Team Focused

Gondor was built from the ground up to support a distributed team environment. A site can have multiple environments with different team members able to deploy as many instances as needed to the different environments (e.g. dev, staging, production). For example, a developer can quickly deploy a branch of code they are working on to a temporary instance for demostration purposes.

Experienced

The team behind Gondor has a wealth of experience both in hosting our production sites as well as those of our clients. We have  decades of experience in building and managing distributed and cloud based environments in high scale environments.

The Client

Eldarion has written a command line client that once installed can drive all your interactions with the Gondor hosting service. For the most part, this is the tool that developers will use day-to-day to deploy and/or create new sites or instances, run management commands remotely and dump and restore your site’s data.

The API

The API is what the Eldarion client uses to drive Gondor functionality and is available for others to write their own clients should they choose to do so.

The Website

Gondor provides a simple, yet feature packed, control panel for managing your Gondor-hosted sites. With Gondor, you have the ability to manage developer roles, monitor at a glance the state of each instance and track which version of the code is currently deployed on each instance (including a complete history).

Capabilities

  • role-based permissions
  • complete deployment history
  • revision control via git or mercurial
  • dependency management using pip and virtualenv
  • database migrations via South or nashvegas

  • easy transition from shared infrastructure to dedicated stack

User Comments/Rating

  1. What a great find. I used to host my apps myself but new systems and deployments were always a worry. With Gondor these are very straight forward. They handle all the database admin, packages and settings control leaving the developer to get on with development!!
