Hosting is a component of the Hostmaster system. It provides the front end, and a layer of glue that communicates with the back end provided by the Provisioning framework. It provides a complete interface for customizing aspects of your hosting environment.

About Hostmaster

The Hostmaster system is a modular, extensible site instance manager, that allows you to manage many Drupal sites through it's Drupal based user interface. New sites are created simply by creating a new Site node. New services and features can be enabled by simply adding new modules to the system. More information is available on our Project Goals and Overview pages on our hm2 group on g.d.o.

About this release

This release fixes some documentation and user experience issues. More information can be found on the Project Roadmap wiki page.
