What do we do?

Hosting

Mozilla has setup accounts with hosting providers, so we can help host your website. There's a few options, so for a quicker process, in the additional comments box, tell us what you are going to be hosting on your site, and how many users you're expecting.

Wordpress

We are providing wordpress hosting services for the community needs.

  • Wordpress
  • Database
    • MySQL in Amazon RDS
    • Periodic backups in S3
  • Persistent storage
    • All files are stored in distributed glusterfs volumes.
  • Management
    • [TODO] All wordpress instances are centrally managed using MainWP.

Domain services

  • We can provide domain names and DNS management for communities.
Details

Domains point directly towards their own Route 53 hosted zone. All records are created within that hosted zone. For AWS services, aliases are used where possible.

Hosted Zones

We manage DNS for:

  • mozilla-community.org
  • mozilla.community
