Bonnaroo Music Festival (www.bonnaroo.com)

Bonnaroo is an annual music festival that attracts top artists and fans from around the world to the rolling hills of Tennessee.
The festival organizers decided to use Rails in 2007 and they needed a solid and scalable place to deploy their website, which includes various ecommerce features.
We helped the organizers successfully scale through several press appearances and ticket releases. Traffic to the Bonnaroo website reaches high numbers at various times leading up to the event, and we're happy to report that it's been smooth sailing since Bonnaroo started with us.

Idealab (www.idealab.com)
Pasadena, California, USA
Idealab approached us in early December, 2006, having made the decision to go with Rails for a new idea that was hatching within Idealab.
Their immediate need was for employees, which we addressed through Quality Humans, Inc.
At the same time, they started evaluating options to deploy their app. They looked at Engine Yard and compared to other solutions, including their own great IT infrastructure.
They decided that Engine Yard was the best choice in terms of return on invested time and money.
A few days later, they started development using one of our configurations that includes Staging and Production environments.

Their knowledge of Rails and their quick responsiveness to our growth and code change has been beyond excellent.
