Choosing PHP on Engine Yard Cloud, we have even more flexibility in languages and components to develop apps that scale from concept to production and meet our clients’ varying needs. With Engine Yard behind us from a technical and support perspective, we have the confidence to explore new ideas and push the envelope for our clients. If that wasn't enough, the EY support team and pandas provide a customer service experience that is impecable [especially in an industry that talks the talk but rarely delivers on that promise]
I'm a big fan of engineyard and cannot say enough good things about their support team.
One Saturday morning i switched my app server from passenger to unicorn ( which was super simple ).
Because I renamed a utility instance during the rebuild, one of my custom chef recipes wasn't working.
Within 6 minutes of opening a ticket, I had an answer from their support teams with the changes I needed to get it to work.
I often recommend to my startup clients that they should check out @engineyard. Not only do they provide a useful tool set on top of AWS, but they provide the critical support of an ops team you can actually easily communicate with. Rather than thinking of @engineyard as an "expensive way to go for AWS", I say, they are "a very economical sysops team with hosting thrown in".
We've been using Engine Yard to run Andromo App Maker for Android for some time now, and couldn't be happier with their platform, service or support. They really take a load off by not having to worry about the reliability of our back end. I'd definitely recommend you put them at the top of your list when considering your options.
We've been using Engine Yard for over two years now and we still strongly believe that Engine Yard was the correct solution for our needs. We had spent almost a year creating a Ruby on Rails application, we were ready to make a global launch of our application and we had less than 2 months to complete our entire external server environment. After deciding on we had a production ready site without hours and fully flushed out all of our required security and environment configurations within days. Engine Yard allowed us to have a smooth transition into the public market and has helped keep us running smoothly for years after.
