We're moving to Rackspace.

Cloud or dedicated/managed?

Real hardware and lots of it. Once we get moved over and everything's humming along nicely, we'll do a writeup or two about the new infrastructure.

Nice, I'm really looking forward that to that. I'd love to hear about the transition too - big moves aren't easy, as I'm sure you guys know.

What FS will you use? SSDs?

That'll be great...and hopefully address one of concerns about having our private repos sitting on ATAoE storage.

What concerns are those?

that was my guess, you guys have a big dev following, rackspace has marketing money that can be reallocated to hosting github.

good luck

It doesn't actually say Github is moving. It just says that Github isn't going to be supported by EngineYard in the same way. It's entirely feasible that Github remain at EngineYard.

Edit Woops. Looks like I missed the key part of a sentence there. Sorry folks.

That's exactly what the article says:

"However, in the end, the best arrangement for them was moving."

"Accordingly, we are currently working directly with their next provider to maintain smooth service as they cut over."

"Provider" really sounds like they are talking about infrastructure
